The Experience

Hello! My name is Mohamed. I own a house in the town of 'Tagounite', close to the Sahara Desert. My aim on this website is to find enthusiastic, hard-working people who can help me to refurbish my house (it was damaged in the flood). In turn, I will, of course, provide you with accommodation, food etc. Additionally, I hope to share the local culture and way of life with you - something I am passionate about.

I stayed with Braham and Hamou and the immersion in the local culture was complete. We had dinner with Amazigh people, learned a few words in their language, and also had dinner with the host's family, everyone was very welcoming and kind. They pick you up and drop you off at the CTM bus stop (which is usually where everyone arrives). Access to water can be a bit limited, so anything related to water and hygiene is a little more challenging than usual, but it's very easy to manage if you bring hand sanitizer and hygienic wet wipes.

Ibrahim (and his family) were incredibly nice and welcoming and tried to make you as comfortable as possible (there was not much pressure). Some of the work is really fun, some is heavy but you do learn a lot about how people live their lives in Tiraf. There are some really amazing moments throughout the experience (Ibrahim took me and others to the Sahara!). This is a very unique experience so if you have any questions or concerns, feel free to reach out and I am more than happy to provide an honest overview.

I couldn't meet the farm because of the timing, but his brother Brahim and his family welcomed me very warmly. They are wonderful people who always make sure you're doing well. At work, they take the time to explain everything, which makes the whole experience truly unforgettable. They also spend time with you, showing you around and teaching you about their culture. I highly recommend this experience to everyone. Thank you so much for everything!

Although I wasn't with Mohammed for majority of my stay, I was with his friends and family. Specifically Hammou who took amazing care of me and made sure I was always in the loop. I was well fed, and made some good friends. The work was demanding but rewarding. They give you breaks whenever you need. Every evening we did something new like exploring new places or going to friends houses. The stars are beautiful and light up the sky at night. If you want an authentic experience here in Morocco then I recommend here in Tagounite.

I really enjoyed my time in Tagounite and will treasure it as an amazing experience. The work was physical but very manageable, and I appreciated how Brahim always listened and took into account how we were feeling. I loved accompanying Brahim to visit friends and do everyday tasks. It was such a gift to be around Brahim's deep knowledge of the area and the plants there. I felt safe and welcomed as a woman traveling alone, which is very important to me. Overall, I had a beautiful and enriching experience and would highly recommend it to other travelers.
