Whirlwind tour

Casablanca to Marrakech to Ouarzazate in less than 5 days.  Lots of trainings (i.e. safety/security, survival language, and community building with other Peace Corps volunteers).  Drove through the snow-covered High Atlas Mountains directly below Jebel Toubkal (highest Moroccan peak) after days of hanging out in a tropical fruit, nut, and palm tree-filled desert oasis.  Flora and fauna is absolutely beautiful.  The market was totally overwhelming and Arabic language-learning is ramped to full speed.  Alex and I couldn't be better.  Videos and pictures soon to come.  -Jonathan
