sDude, me and a friend took a bus to Merzouga and decided to spend a night in the desert with camels – what an awesome choice! We left the camels in the desert and chilled in an oasis with these two camel dudes. It was unreal – sunsets, starry nights, magical evenings, and beautiful sunrises. And the Berber culture was incredible – songs, stories, jokes, everything! It was pure happiness. Huge thanks to those camel dudes, you guys were the best! Hopefully, we’ll be back someday. Insha Allah (hopefully)!
