On our way into the high Atlas Mountains the van stopped along the side of the road. We all got out and walked up a hill to a small village where we were invited to tour and have tea in a Berber home. What an unbelievably incredible opportunity!
The home was beautiful and was built along the side of a mountain. It was quite spacious with a gorgeous courtyard space in the center. The woman of the home was so excited to show us her new, second kitchen full of tea kettles and with a fridge! The man of the home then showed us how to make traditional Moroccan Mint Tea and we shared tea and a meal of homemade bread, butter, honey, and olive oil. This was the best tea and bread of the trip. We devoured the food and they were gracious enough to send bread with us for the road :)
We just feel so honored and lucky to have been able to share this experience with such a lovely family.
