Gift of the Day: a pair of babouche slippers, perfect for any princess!
Nomads
They’re not that far from Skoura, the village of the High Atlas where we’re staying, but it took us time to find them.
We drove off road in the stony desert, wondering if the stones would pop our tires, we pretented we weren’t afraid of their dogs who were barking at us, and then finally we saw a woman and a boy coming towards us, followed by their goats.
They are troglodyte nomads. They don’t live in tents, but inside caves that are located along each of their stops.
I call everyone darling…
Present of the day : an initialed bracelet so that your friends remember your name… Bracelet by Jessica Barensfeld.
A Good Hat
Just because I’m in Morrocco doesn’t mean I forgot it was winter. We went across the High Atlas today and it was negative 12 outside.
This is not an ordinary apple..
From now until Christmas, I’m going to post some photos of things that have caught my eye, things I’ve seen on friends or simply while window shopping that have given some inspiration to my Christmas list. Some things I want to give, and some I’m hoping to receive…
Today’s gift: an apple candle…by DL & Company.
Last Week…
This is what I did last week:
Loved Instagram: It’s been a while since I’ve been addicted to something like this. I love the Instagram community and I feel like it’s based on something other than “wow look how cool my life is!!!” which is so often what Twitter devolves to (including me, I think it’s just the media that makes us like that). But Instagram is funny, because what people are looking for is really just cool pictures. I love it.
On The Road In Morocco
If you follow me on Twitter, Instagram and Facebook, you know that we’ve been in Morocco for two days. The atmosphere here is intoxicating and it feels great to lose track of time… So much that I kind of want to let go and just contemplate for a few days… Even more so because tomorrow we’re heading to the desert and we may not have internet or phone at all… We’ll see !
In the meantime, I have a ton of things to tell you, some pictures from Paris and New York to show you and even a gift guide to share with you… So a lot of kisses till tomorow !
