The liquid gold of Essaouira (Morocco vlog)

The Liquid GOLD of Essaouira.
Our first vlog in Morocco takes us to Essaouira, the hidden gem at the atlantic coast. Forget Fes or Marrakech- Essaouira has a lot of surprises for the tourist. The old town Medina (UNESCO world heritage site), the hassle-free shops, the food, the bars, the vibe, the music, the arts, the windy sea (a Mecca for surfers and kitesurfers) and much more.

We got lost for a day in the labyrinth of narrow streets and passages, being forever charmed by the blue sky, the white houses, the golden ramparts, the remote beaches and the coulourful and friendly people.

After losing our GoPro hero 6 to the waves of the Atlantic ocean (gone forever :( ) in the morning we were amazed how many cats can be on the empty morning streets. Slowly the tow awakes to life, with its explosion of sound, taste and colours.

Walking around the streets we had a lot of fun negotiating prices for souvenirs, tasting the amazing olives and meeting crezy people like the ones dancing on the street, like the other guy trying to sell us „homemade" cookies with drugs or like the third one who asked Alecsandra to sell him her eyes (!) for 1 million dollars. US! :))

There's nothing more than a walk in the dawn on the beach and ending up the evening in one of Essaouiras original bars or restaurants.

Next morning we went after THE LIQUID GOLD- the amazing and so trendy Argan Oil. Here there are a lot of women „co-operatives" where the precious oil is produced from the Argan fruits. We visited such a co-operative and tried to work along with the women. And yeah, we found out also what the difference between the cosmetic oil and the one for cooking is!
