The Places you should not miss in Marrakesh

Back from Marrakech, Mouna shares with us her addresses and tips in the Red City. This Yoga enthusiast Londoner, tells us everything about the must do activities for a few days city break in Marrakesh. In the agenda, culture, local gastronomy, landscapes but also relaxation!

In a few words, tell us about yourself, and what do you like to do during your travels?

I am passionate about Feng Shui and Interior Design that I study at the Institute of Art and Design in New York, in parallel with my job (I work for a media group in London).

I have just started a project to decorate an apartment at PalmGolf Marrakech that excites me particularly. The idea is to create a design and functional space that helps to realize your personal projects. So I take advantage of my stays to immerse myself in local decorations and flavors and refuel, far from the crazy London.
