Weather in Morocco in August By Morocco Family Vacation
When I first planned our summer trip to Morocco in August, I had mixed feelings. I knew Morocco was hot in the summer, but I wasn’t sure how my kids would handle the heat. Traveling with two children my 7-year-old and 10-year-old means considering naps, hydration, sun protection, and activity pacing more than anything else. I wanted an adventure, but I also wanted it to be safe and enjoyable for them.

Weather in Morocco in July By Morocco Family Vacation
When we planned our family trip to Morocco, July wasn’t my first choice. Like most parents, I worried about the heat especially with kids. I pictured endless sun, cranky afternoons, and constant searching for shade. But our schedule left us with July, so we adjusted our expectations and planned carefully.

Standing at the edge of the Sahara in Merzouga, watching golden dunes stretch endlessly into the horizon, I realized this was one of those rare travel moments that stays with you forever especially when you experience it with your children.

Do’s and Don’ts in Morocco for Families by Morocco Family Vacation
Before traveling to Morocco with my children, I did what most parents do I researched endlessly. Articles listed rules, warnings, and cultural tips, but many felt impersonal or overly dramatic. What I really wanted to know was simple: What actually matters when you’re there with kids?

Eating in Morocco With Food Allergies by Morocco Family Vacation
Traveling with food allergies is stressful no matter where you go. Traveling with kids who have food allergies can feel overwhelming. When we planned our family trip to Morocco, this was the part that worried me the most. I kept asking myself the same questions: Would people understand allergies? Would language be a barrier? Would I be constantly on edge at every meal?

What I Learned Is Considered Disrespectful in Morocco by Morocco Family Vacation
Before visiting Morocco with my family, I read countless articles about customs, etiquette, and cultural differences. Still, I worried I’d make a mistake especially traveling as a mom with children who ask questions loudly, touch everything, and don’t always understand unspoken rules.

Is Driving Safe in Morocco for Families? by Morocco Family Vacation
Before our family trip to Morocco, one question kept coming back to me: Is it safe to drive in Morocco with kids? I had read mixed opinions online, some reassuring, others intimidating. As a mom responsible for more than just my own comfort, I needed to be sure we were making the right decision.

Holidays in Morocco During Ramadan
When we first realized our family trip to Morocco would fall during Ramadan, I’ll admit I felt uncertain. As a mom traveling with kids, I worried about logistics, food schedules, and whether we would unintentionally offend someone. I had questions running through my head: Would restaurants be open? Would my children feel restricted? Would traveling during such an important religious month feel uncomfortable for us as visitors?

Hotels vs. Riads in Morocco for Families
Before our first family trip to Morocco, I didn’t fully understand the difference between riads and hotels. I’d heard the words riad, kasbah, riad but wasn’t sure what made them unique. As a mom, I cared most about one thing: what’s actually better for my kids?

Coastal Series: Part I (Washington State)
Washington does not introduce its coastline. It lets you find it... There’s no sudden reveal, no postcard moment engineered for the windshield. The coast arrives gradually, in pieces... Through rain-darkened trees, through logging towns that never rebranded themselves, through long stretches of road where the radio fades, and the sky lowers itself closer to the ground.

The Genius Idea of Stopovers in Warsaw
Normally I aim to spend anywhere from two to three hours between connecting flights at international airports before moving on promptly to my final destination. In the adventure my wife and I undertook, we had a stopover in Warsaw of a whopping seven-and-a-half hours **during the day**. There is no way any airport is so good to spend that much time there during the day, so we were definitely going to see the city. But was it worth it? Could we see something and get back to our connecting flight without being frazzled?
