The most fascinating experience any student would love to enjoy is traveling and exploring a foreign country they are studying in. The exciting part of living as an International Student is meeting new people and going to places I have never been before. It keeps me motivated to learn and makes me feel enlightened. I often planned to travel during the summer holiday season because I wanted to do something different and spice up my boring summer routine. Travelling in Morocco has been a not-so- rosy experience but I am glad to have been exposed to other races and cultures I have not known. I was quite alarmed to realize that there was racial stigma despite being a multi-racial Arab Kingdom.Most Moroccans never knew about my country,Kenya. Many of them even thought that Kenyans don't speak English and would assume I was from Senegal or Congo therefore proceeding to speak to me in French. I travelled to some parts of Agadir and Taroudant in the southern part of Morocco and Fes, Meknes, Mohammedia, Kenitra and Rabat in the Northern part. What seemed so interesting to me was that the multi -lingual culture is practiced in the southern part of Morocco than the Northern part. During the time I was traveling I knew a little bit of the French Language to save me from trying to mumble in Arabic though majority of the Moroccan commoners spoke Arabic and a little French. Travelling as a Kenyan Student in Morocco had been a unique, strange and isolating experience because people would treat you so differently. I remember travelling to the Beach in Agadir and talking to some natives. As they heard that I was a Kenyan Student,they assumed that I came from a rich family. According to them, that would be the only way I would have afforded to come to Morocco,right? They were also surprised to know that a " Kenyan" student would study in their country because of the fact that my country is an English Speaking country. Travelling in the Southern part of Morocco was less controversial than the Northern part. Moroccans living in Agadir and Taroundant in general were very friendly, open and kind to students like me compared to the northern cities of Morocco. I remember walking through the Vallée des Oiseaux in Agadir and a group of Moroccan women walking towards me stopped to greet me and one of them asked me where I came from. I told them I came from Kenya and one of them made a strong remark, ' KENYA ,LAND OF ATHLETES, they run very fast.... TERGAT...pleasure to meet you. Those words stuck in my memory to date. That was the first time I knew of a Moroccan speaking about my beloved country Kenya. Some of the natives in the Southern part of Morocco particularly Agadir gave me some advice while others gave me presents in form of herbs, jewellery and foods like Tajine and couscous. I was minding my own business when travelling to Fes, one of the northern imperial cities in Morocco. I was travelling by train. The worst instance, I remember was when a Moroccan who was sitting next to me told me to stay away from their country because Africans are overpopulating his country. He also added that Africans should develop their own countries to avoid coming to Morocco and other European countries because Morocco is part of Europe, right?? I couldn't really listen to him for a long time because his negative jabbering and ignorance really bored me. I could not negate the fact that he was right about Africans running to Europe instead of solving their own issues. I was on my earphones listening to positive music to erase the negative subconscious energies and words that the Moroccan said. I had to constantly remind myself that I was here to enjoy my trips and stay motivated even when studying in Morocco. I had a great opportunity learn about different people and places in this peculiar destination while comparing it's tourism industry to that of my country. I met some amazing people including my fellow Africans mostly the Francophones and Lusophones who were also studying and learning more about Morocco.
