the tangier that i see is paul. i still see it. i still feel it. you can still find the magic. the market is one of the best in all morocco. the food stalls and vendors are still pretty impressive. wander the markets long enough and you re sure to stumble across the unexpected. lamb s head? nothing goes to waste. char broiled, the meat is scraped off and served on a crusty lunch bread. not so adventurous? the indoor market offers a variety of smoked, cured and fresh meat. smells good in here. it looks good. oh, i ve heard this cheese is amazing. it s good, yeah. could i have one? a favorite, fresh goat cheese wrapped in palm leaves. yeah, they re beautiful, aren t they?
what is this place? the reality is, you can read the story and live it. people do come here and try to live it. but they don t stay very long. they stay in a cheap hotel and go home to the bedbugs. that s a great story. and a great story. but the attitude here is different than other parts of morocco. i think they have a higher tolerance and tradition of bad or outrageous behavior. they have high tolerances. you know? but moroccan essentially are very tolerant people. they kind of like madness as well. they kind of celebrate that, you know? how is moroccan tangier? it is a moroccan city. you can see spain and gibraltar. so you see all sorts of people passing through. but it s a very moroccan city. i m 62 years old. it was finished in 1956. but at that time i think the europeans may have outnumbered

powdered sugar and cinnamon. the whole lot is then wrapped in foi de brick, a crepe-like dough. after baked to a golden crispiness. there s a dusting of more cinnamon and sugar. it s got sweet, savory thing going on, and it s quite tasty. if you get nervous when you go in a room and you touch the light switch and the lights don t come on, you shouldn t be in this country. you said, i could live here. i m still quite unsure about that. i came here in 1958 when it was quite different. long native dress. islam was still the throbbing motor of life here. i have a very tender feeling for morocco, courtesy of the people and the children, you know.
