More Morrocan Moments
When I was preparing for our trip to Morocco, I read the trip notes that Intrepid Travel provided to get a sense of what to look forward to. As detailed and comprehensive as the itinerary was on paper, the actual experience of participating in the activities was still something I wasn’t fully prepared for nor expected, in the […]

Viajera Profile: Mary Charmel Samonte
