Silvia in Marrakesh

This is the map of Morocco and in the middle is Marrakesh. A city with palaces, colourful bazaars and a great market. Can you imagen the camels waiting on the outskirts of the city to bring you to the oasis with palm trees and seeing the impressive Atlas mountains in the background.
I have had a glimpse of Morocco when I was young and we stayed in Spain for a holiday. We went with the boat to morocco for the day and visited Tangier, Tetuan and Cetua. A wonderful experience. It was like stepping into a movy scene for me. A completely different culture

This is Silvia, my best Dutch friend . I met Silvia on a birthday of a mutual friend when we lived in Leuth in Holland. She lived around the corner and we are friends ever since. She even flew over to Christchurch for the weekend to catch up with me when she was travelling through Australia some years ago. We always talk for hours on the phone. She has great knowledge a good sense of humour and a very strong personality. I will meet up with her again when I go to Holland next year.

What has the one to do with the other?

Silvia visited Marakesh today and this photo is on the blog of Elizabeth The House in Marrakesh Silvia told me that she was going to travel through Morocco, so I told Elizabeth who's blog I visit. The lovely Elizabeth invited Silvia for a cup of tea and here she is walking with Elizabeth through the souks.

I haven't met any blogging friends in person yet but now one met my friend which I find equally exciting. Blogging makes the world smaller and brings people together. Thanks Elizabeth.
