Jiggin' at Jemaa el Fna - Marrakech, Morocco




Jemaa el Fna lights up each night with endless entertainment, varying from snake charmers, to teeth pullers...
With a band of men and boys playing all sorts, these men lit up my night by jumping and jingling up and down, and round and round..
Huge grins on their faces accompanied their traditional dress and dance.

Morocco was an absolute feast for the senses, with tea and spices stacked high on every corner, 
The smells and the colours were incredible!

Animal "Entertainment"/Abuse - Marrakech, Morocco



Animal abuse appears to be very high in Morocco,
With heaps of tourists paying to pose with the poor creatures every day I don't see it slowing anytime soon...
Heartbreaking.

The Mint Men - Morocco





With endless amounts of mint tea drank every day, the mint men have a very important delivery.
Whether its at a stall, on a cart or strapped to a bicycle.

A Change Of Scenery - Essaouira, Morocco




A huge contrast to humid, bustling Marrakech, fishing town Essaouira with its strong winds and hassle-free nature was a welcomed change of scenery.

Viva La Virgen Del Carmen - Malaga, Spain



 Lucky enough to witness the annual procession and celebration of the Virgin Carmen into and out from the waters of the beach townships around Malaga.
Big bands, dancing, crying and throwing roses, it seems to be quite the event.

When Religions Collide - Córdoba, Spain



Today I was amazed by a building whose beauty only grew from its history of being Church turned Mosque turned Cathedral... 
A beautiful example of how extraordinary something can be by connecting elements from different cultures.

Heat vs the Magic of Disney, perhaps the kingdom is not so glamorous...

The coordinated ceremonial changing of the Evzones guard, on the hour every hour.
Captivating.
