It's been a while since I've last posted. A few exciting things have happened. 1. We had our midterm exam, we all did great. 2. Ramadan has begun. 3. Classes are starting to come to an end.

My neighborhood! |
I can't believe how fast the time has gone and that we only have four classes left. I've been loving Ramadan. The food is amazing. Every night we have traditional Moroccan soup, Mlawai, Moroccan pancakes, dates, Chebekia, fresh orange juice, smoothies, hard boiled eggs, Moroccan pizza, and other little treats. I'm obsessed with the Moroccan soup and plan on having my host Mom teach me how to make it before I leave. Seriously the best soup I've ever had. We eat around 7:30 PM right after call of prayer. It's so funny how call of prayer use to startle me and now I barely notice it and when I do, I find it soothing. I often go for jogs before dinner, and will see the people in my neighborhood walking up to the Mosque by my house. After dinner, my host Mom and sister go to the mosque to pray from 8:30 to 11:00 P.M. My host Dad and brother don't go but I think they pray on their own. Below I posted some pictures of my neighborhood, my class, and dinner. Class has been going well, it defintley has picked up and is getting harder in these last two weeks but that's expected. My teacher Aziza is awesome and is so encouraging!! This weekend we head to Casablanca and Marrakesh.
