Actually, the rest of Morocco think of us people from Rabat as being... as far from being down to earth as possible. It's probably because we are the capital of the country. And so always people think that we're not down to earth and somewhat we are arrogant. There is also another stereotype that we give false directions if someone is asking us about the direction of the street. I don't know why.

I think people are very friendly in Morocco. Even if people don't speak English, they will try and communicate with you whatever they can. So people are very friendly. But I think in the big cities such as Rabat, Casablanca or Marrakech, a lot of people speak now English. So I don't think you would have a problem with communicating with other people.

Okay. So, well, now with just finishing up my master's, I'm looking for a job ideally in Paris. So I think maybe for the next five years, I'm planning to stay in Paris and see, I don't know, see what life has for me. But in the long run, I'll probably go back to my country.

I eat a lot of food. So if you come to Morocco, I bet you are going to gain like five pounds. And the other thing that I like to do is I like to go to hair salons and spas. Because here in France, it's very expensive. While in Morocco, you can get the same quality of service with a fraction of the price. So I like to get my nails done, my hair, like to have like a relaxing spa day.
