    Is there a solution for this t3nkisha? I work full time so I can't be going back and forth between the cities that often. Is there something I can do?

    Can Everyone Afford to Connect?

    Hi everyone, a few weeks ago I came across a YouTube video that discusses the internet in Morocco, and addresses many issues, and also provides a hashtag so our voice is heard.

    In a country that will host the World Cup in 5 years and still has max internet speed set to 200mbps and with a whopping price of 100$ a month, this is ridiculous, and the other 2 operators offer a slightly lower price but they are not available in all areas and cities. If we compare the prices and the speed offered by other countries, for example, in France the price for 600mbps is 20 EUR monthly, that is the price for an ADSL 20mbps in Morocco, which offers 1mbps in the upload speed, let's not compare with a European country, if we compare to Algeria they have 1.2gbps internet speed with a price of 32 USD, and 240mbps 21 USD, in morocco its 5 times more expensive, I don't know who calculate these prices, are they based on their own interest or our purchase power, but I guess its the first option.

    These are the hashtags, if anyone wants to support this cause.

    Picking up a new hobby in your late 20s or 30s

    Hey everyone!

    I’m in my late 20s, and I’ve been feeling like I need to explore some new hobbies but haven’t quite found one that sticks yet. I’m curious, did any of you manage to pick up a new hobby in your late 20s or 30s? How long did it take for you to really get into it, and what was the hobby?

    Looking forward to reading your comments.

    Hofy delivery in morocco

    Hi everyone,

    I recently learned that Hofy provides hardware delivery services globally, including to Morocco, and I’m expecting equipment from them soon. However, I couldn’t find detailed information about how they handle deliveries in Morocco specifically.

    Does anyone here have experience receiving shipments from them? I’m curious about:

    1. Which courier service they use (e.g., their own network, Amana, DHL, etc.)
    2. How the tracking process works locally

    Any insights from those who’ve dealt with Hofy deliveries in Morocco are greatly appreciated!

    Moroccan atay - Ambar vs Jawhar grain?

    I’ve recently returned from Marrakech and since returning purchased on Amazon some pearl green tea by the brand ‘Sultan’ which I saw as a recommendation on Reddit on another thread. The one I purchased was ‘Grain Jawhar’ which I’ve been enjoying, but I’ve seen they also have a ‘Grain Ambar’. I was wondering what the difference was?

    I was also recommended the ‘Sultan Grain Amabr Green Tea With Orange Blossom’ which I can find online for £8.98 (including postage) for a 150g box, so I’m debating whether to try that, albeit quite pricey.

    Thanks!

    Permission to bring a drone in Morocco

    Good morning,

    I will be visiting Morocco in a few weeks and I would like to bring my drone into the country to shoot some videos in the desert.

    I did some research and learnt that drones are forbidden in Morocco, but apparently you can ask for a permit in advance, declare when and where you want to use it, and you should be good.

    However I cannot find any information at all regarding this procedure. I have tried:

    -writing Morocco embassy in my country: no answer

    -writing Moroccan Aviation Civile: no answer

    -booking a video call with Moroccan Aviation Civile: no one showed up at the meeting

    I would really appreciate if you can share your experience or provide useful information in this regard.

    F1 fans, what the hell happened today?

    I knew Mad Max wouldn't let the FiA grid penalty slide, but overtaking Russel right on the first corner, fucking ruthless!

    At this point, Stroll should enlist in the Canadian Royal Navy, he's more qualified serving as an actual torpedo than a driver.

    FiA replacing the race director was truly top notch, Chef's kiss, let's just leave a sideview mirror laying on the track, not like its got carbon fiber or glass tha... whoops, 2 drivers punctured their tires going over debris. Let's wait 2 more laps before the safety car.

    Max snitching on Norris for not slowing down during the yellow flag, gifting him a 10s stop/go penalty. Max you mad lad, not only is he driving his car to its fullest potential, he's also sidequesting as detective Conan.

    I was finally rooting Perez, my man had nothing but Ls lately, wait he's actually in P5 now, are we finally getting a double Red Bull podiu... aaaaaaaaand he's down to P17, what the hell happened? What does "I lost drive" even mean?

    Mercedes, well, they've been through enough this weekend, no need to beat a dead horse.

    Phenomenal display from Zhou however, driving the shittiest car on track and still managed a P8.

    The memes from this race will be legendary. Simply lovely!

    Sidenote: I have now learned the Dutch national anthem by heart thanks to Max.

    Investment from europe in AirBnbs

    How do locals feel about morrocan diaspora buying up cheap apartments (cheap for them as they are from the UK) and renting them out. 2 morrocon brothers on tiktok claim locals love them because they are providing more housing, as they invest in building property, and pay corporation tax. However i dont think locals would like gentrifiers anywhere in the world inflating their housing prices.

    Marrakesh being a touristy city; they charge around 890 dirhams a day to tourists but no mention on any locals being able to afford that.

    I am from the north of england and i know too well of how Londoners buy up "cheap" houses that we struggle to afford for them to then charge extortionate rent back to us. In spain they protest against rich people who buy up property just to make them into an AirBnb that locals cannot afford. You guys will soon see the impact on your rent prices and will be forced to move out of your own city, it just pissed me off how he thought he was doing the locals a favour when they were arguing with him in his own comment section. Thoughts?

    Disclaimer; I am not morrocan nor do i understand darija and i know people in this subreddit speak english very well, i just hate how landlords are globally ruining the housing market.

    Help learning darija

    Salam!

    I was born and raised in the Netherlands, but my background is Moroccan, from Meknes. At home, we were always exposed to Darija at a decent level. I understand everything, but my problem is that I’m not very good at speaking it. I can handle simple conversations, but my skills are definitely limited. I’m looking for books written in Darija to help me become fluent. I wonder if such books even exist, as I only seem to find books in French.
