WWW Poster Project

For this years Week Without Walls we went to the high Atlas mountains. We did fun activities like riding mules, an all day hike and experiencing the daily chores of men ad women. We rode the mules for three hours with a few pauses in between.After that we experienced how the Berbers felt like when they have to ride the mules all day long. The all day hike was also very interesting. We mostly walked on dirt roads or small paths leading to the mountain. We ate lunch in a small village. When we started walking again it started raining an didn't stop until we arrived at the village were we were going to stay in. For dinner we mostly had tagines but also spaghetti's, brochettes and couscous. The point of these trips is to learn more about Berber life.
