Homestays in Morocco
Homestays in Morocco:
Homestay is a form of tourism and/or study abroad program that allows you to rent living space from a local family to better learn the local lifestyle as well as learn some of the local language, Darija (Moroccan Arabic). Hosting a homestay participant also allows the local family to earn some additional, needed income.You will enjoy an immersive family experience where you will live, eat, and if you wish, share the majority of your time in Morocco with your host family.
What the homestays says about this experience:
My wife, 6 year old son, 2 year old daughter and I recently stayed eight nights at a home stay sponsored by Morocco Host which is owned by Jim Baird. We had the pleasure of meeting Jim and his wife for tea and they both are wonderful people and they are providing a valuable service of helping the local Moroccan community by placing guests in their homes.
We stayed at Khadija's home and we had an amazing time. We have been traveling throughout Europe for 17 months and this has been one of our most pleasurable experiences, by far. Khadija has four children and they all instantly became like family to us.
We feel very blessed to have met Khadija as she was a wonderful host. She cooked three meals a day and walked around with us almost everyday to help us navigate the Medina, show us the local sights in Fes, etc.
We highly recommend staying in a home stay in Fes and the Morocco Host / Jim Baird will definitely help you find the family that fits you best.
We enjoyed our stay so much that we are already planning to return in two months after exploring the rest of Morocco.
Sincerely,
Ryan, Emy, Ollie and Kendley Rauch
And what Madison Lindgren says:
Came too Morocco a few weeks ago ad had the opportunity to experience a homestay. I can easily say this this made my time there much more than I could have imagined it to be. It gave me an up-close look at the culture and and feel for how the morrocans live their every day lives. The family I was able to stay with was so gracious to me. I learned a lot from them about their culture and built a relationship with them that I will ever forget!
