Chefchaouen is quite mesmerising.  Every corner I go around I find another photo opportunity, it is taking me ages to actually get anywhere, especially if you include getting lost every 5 minutes in the Medina.  It’s actually quite a small Medina so it’s fine but god knows how I will survive when I get to Fez and it’s 6000 streets!

Everyone here seems very friendly and it’s quite a chilled town.  I really have wanted to take photos of the old men in their Djellabas - they look amazing and have such character in their faces.  I have asked a few for permission and they have said no.  I remember reading somewhere that some don’t like having their photograph taken because they believe the camera steals the person’s soul.  I am not sure if this is the reason at all but wouldn’t, out of respect, even consider taking a photo of someone that didn’t want me to.  So for now whilst I am in Chefchaouen I shall just stick to taking pictures of the beautiful blue doors and walls!
