A QUESTION OF TRUST (and a good nerve system)

The silence on the other end was killing…
“ Quel envoi ( what shipment)?” Abdel answered while he was seemingly enjoying a good breakfast.

BELGIAN BIO FARM AND GUESTHOUSE = KIDS HOLIDAY!

Going to a farm, being with animals, it brings out the kid in me! 

And that was what happened last Sunday when I was surrounded by pigs, cows, chickens, goats, doves, donkeys, horses, ducks....amongst 2 ha of pomegranates and olive trees. I felt like when I was living at the countryside in Flanders. Only, this time it was at an altitude of 1300m outside Marrakesh with in front the majestic High Atlas peaks of around 4000m. Swimming pool, a gorgeous lunch with homegrown vegetables everything biological. 
I can assure you...you don't have to have kids to enjoy all of this. But when you do have, they feel in heaven. Especially with all the workshops going on. From mud building to henna painting and donkey rides.
