Where am I?

For the last 4 weeks here, I have had nothing much to think about and prepare but my luggage and my papers. Let's see what I have accomplished so far and how I did it. No thanks to the backwards system of the land and the people here:

1. I had to clear my bank account and I had to go back to the bank 3 times before everything was fixed.

2. I had to rebook my flight and I had to go to the agency 5 times and wait for a day only to be told that I won't get it. The agent said my flight rescheduling, for the first time was for free. The following day, I was told I had to pay 900.00 MADS (Dirhams), then I of course had to use my complaining voice, then she tried to call the other airline offices. Then my original flight was cancelled so I had no choice but to give in to the 300.00 MADS fee for my request. Still I didn't get my confirmation and e ticket and had to wait after a week.

3. Then my dough. I had to travel 50 kilometers to get what I needed.

Oh well, even my boss told me something like "this is Morocco Francis, Morocco!" It didn't sound like a compliment about her own country though.

  1. Your tribulations make the Philippines look like a super power with Swiss precision and German engineering. We're not too bad after all.
