Top Ten Tips for Climbing Mount Toubkal

For the past year I have been fundraising in order to take part in Childreach International's Summit to Sea Challenge. This involved me climbing Mount Toubkal and trekking along the Moroccan coast line in every weather condition imaginable. Instead of writing a day by day blog of my experience in Morocco, like I did with …

Morocco – 22nd of June

Our last day in the village of Marigha. We felt so welcomed and accepted by the people in the village that it made us sad to think we had to leave. I know that we will all miss the children so much. In terms of building work we were back to sand chaining and shovelling. …

Morocco – 21st of June

Plastering walls in Morocco essentially consists of throwing cement at walls. We spent the day being taught the technique that means the cement actually sticks to the wall; this does not mean that the cement actually stuck to the wall. The children were waiting outside the house wanting to play after we finished building, so …

Morocco – 20th of June

I think the villagers were becoming more used to us being there, we had a bigger audience at the build site and even a couple of the local girls came out to see what we were doing. One of the the girls wanted to give us a hand with the building, she must have been …

Morocco – 19th of June

The site had gained an audience, the children came to watch us build and some even wanted to help. They had also brought a tiny little kitten with them which was just adorable. We were making more sand chains but because I was on a slight slope I kept managing to batter my legs with …

Morocco – 18th of June

The first thing I did in the morning was look across to the the mountains opposite us. The clouds were tucked in-between them, just under their peaks, hugging the sides like fluffy white glaciers. It was a beautiful start to my day. We had a free afternoon after our morning's work on the building site …

Morocco – 17th of June

A lot of sand chaining happened today (pretty much we lined up and passed buckets of sand down the chain and then the empty buckets back up the chain). Some people were also continuing with cement mixing and wall building. I have to say that chains really are the most efficient way of moving heavy …

Morocco – 16th of June

I was woken at five in the morning by the prayer call from the village mosque, I thought it was a dream. I was even more sure when I asked Imogen and Lorna if they had heard it and they said they hadn't, especially when I could have sworn I asked Imogen what time it …

Morocco – 15th of June

We started work at around nine in the morning after our breakfast. Unfortunately I had only had a banana and an apple for breakfast because the only other option was not gluten free, so I was still a bit hungry when we got to the site but I decided to try and push through it. …

📍SaPa, Vietnam 🇻🇳
Two years ago today I arrived in Hanoi ready for a month of exploration in Vietnam 🇻🇳 I miss travelling, visiting new cities and sitting in cute little coffee shops. I can't wait to see more of this planet when it is finally safe to do so! Here's hoping the wait isn't too long 🤞
