Chefchaouen

Pretty Chefchaouen. Memories of it's relaxed atmosphere, fresh mountain air and pretty whitewashed/blue-rinsed medina almost make me forget the few negative experiences I had (shifty guy at the bus station who pretended to know my fellow travellers and led me to the hostel and ripped me off; taxi driver who tried to rip me off; bus timetable at hostel being wrong thus having to wait in the bus station for several hours; being harrassed by little, Moroccan boys (see rant); numerous offers for hash etc). Nevertheless, Chefchaouen was a gorgeous place where my camera worked overtime.

Some photos. Enjoy!
