To dance beneath the diamond sky...   » Permalink  |  TrackBack (0)

There is an amusing piece in The Observer travel section today by someone who has returned to Morocco after 25 years to try to find the hippies who were there last time he visited. Amazingly, this is a man who doesn't like Essaouira, one of my favourite places on the planet.

If by any remote chance you can grab a week's holiday at the end of next month you could do yourself a favour, prove Geoff Dyer wrong, and visit Essaouira between 22-25th June during the music festival when musicians from all over Africa descend on the town. You will have the experience of a lifetime. Here's a clip of the sort of wonderful music you will hear, Hamid El Kasri joined by Amadou and Mariam.
