About Emmalineau:
Work in theatre and events in Melbourne (which I love) and try to get overseas when I can find the time! Am very lucky in that my work affords me many opportunities to travel and get to know various cities but I love falling off the beaten track and discovering the undercurrents of a place.
Hobbies:City wandering, beer drinking, scrabble playing, band watching, park lazing and surfing if the mood strikes!
Favourite places:Melbourne!! (It's going to other places that renews my love of home!) But have kind of fallen in love with Marrakech as well, and NYC for non-stop fun.

We felt a bit alienated there; after the friendliness of Marrakech, many of the people we met were downright rude and seemed to resent the presence of foreigners. This was the first time we'd encountered this attiture in Morocco and it was a bit sad. That said, it was a fun city to explore and we met some fun fellow travellers who we introduced to the wonders of hammam! We moved on to Meknes, a smaller but much more enjoyable city
