It became some kind of a tradition that in December I share with you the most stunning photos of Morocco of the past year. You can see the photos from 2015 here, and today I’d like to share with you more stunning shots taken by my dear friends, Moroccan photographers, in 2016. Each one of them is unique in their own way, I truly appreciate the way they see and show moments through their lens.

boy african moroccan morocco berber nomad jaskinia Here where time stops, everything has its own true value. I've learnt that some people are still living with the less of needs. A place where the phone you're checking now isn't better than water if you want to survive. I realized how amazing is life beyond all the things we truly don't need. I've seen how human relationships were the true wealth for nomads, that every word got its meaning, when every smile has its worth. We're seeing life as having so much only, forgetting how peace and joy can be reached in seeking abundance, being rich in having people by your side, making memories, and living life experiences. -Nomads Cave, Dades Canyon — Here where time stops, everything has its own true value.

My name is Zeinah and I'm from California, near Los Angeles. It was always my dream to go to Morocco perhaps thanks to my father, who comes from Beirut, Lebanon. We always looked at the pictures of architecture and Moroccan aesthetics with wonder, and there was always a deep connection of the Arab world for me. In the United States I know that I am far from Lebanon and other Arab countries, but also with my Arabic name, I feel a line between me and this beautiful culture. So I went to Morocco with my girlfriend, Bailey, and it was a magical trip. In addition to the magnificent architecture in the medina, we met the people who welcomed us throughout our trip. Once I was buying the fruit at the market in Chefchaoen, and ordered it very specific so I can have the right bananas. And there was a woman who smiled and patted me on the back and said something in Arabic. We laughed together and shared a moment together, even though we had different ages and cultures. I love people and Moroccan culture. It was really magical. — “My name is Zeinah and I’m from California, near Los Angeles.
