    booking the kind of
    work that allows you
    to soar at your craft
    while still buying a house,
    traveling the world,  
    planning a wedding 
    & having a family that 
    doesn't have to starve
    for your art?
    ​
  • Are you ready to
    get unstuck,
    find your purpose
    &  your joy?

​YES,

those questions...

On this trip you’ll journey to Morocco’s classic destinations, visiting its four imperial cities, its mountains and its desert.

Over 17 amazing days you’ll see the stunning colonial architecture and palm-lined boulevards of Rabat, the impressive ramparts and monumental gates of Meknes, the craftsmen, markets, tanneries and mosques of Fes, the endless dunes of the Sahara Desert, the diverse landscapes of the Rif, Middle and High Atlas Mountains, and the storytellers, snake charmers and henna painters of Marrakech’s Djemaa el Fna. Along the way you’ll wander the winding paths of Chefchaouen’s whitewashed medina, go back in time to the Roman Empire at the archaeological site of Volubilis, and discover the 17th century kasbahs of Ait Ben Haddou. With each destination having its own unique history, wonders and highlights, this journey through classic Morocco is one unforgettable cultural adventure!
