Morocco

Nine days across Morocco: desert dunes, Atlantic shores and the people I met on a journey won through Misja Martyna.

I was lucky enough to win a trip to Morocco on the Polish television programme Misja Martyna. Over nine days, I travelled across a vast area of the country, meeting many interesting people along the way. These photographs bring me back to that journey and to memories I still think about today.
