Hi myousra.
I guess,if you've got not choice then you'll have to do what's best for you.
Don't forget you're 22 & perso it's the last place I would choose to live,at
that age,if you weren't born there.
Good luck.
PS:My pseudo is ay dil om.Like Ideal man!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

At 22, you will suffer so much actually! At the moment, Morocco is a retirement place...that's all it is. You' ll surely get away with a short holiday there, but to live there would be a big and risky challenge... Again, if you are going to have bodyguards and escorts and live in an upper class area and mix with the Fassis, then I am sure you'll have great life :-)

Hi myousra,
Which degree/education do you have?
Actually, you need to be strong to manage/understand how the system works there.
In Morocco you have a lot of corruption, street revolt(until when?),... and you need to be prepared to this.
For instance, you can stay there a few months and check.
Every personal experience is different.
Good luck

Hi myousra!
I have read most of the comments and a lot of them make sense.
I do not know which part of Morocco your parents come from as each region has a different approach to life in general.
At 22 you are at a very vunerable age and I think it is the best that you got married in to a Moroccan in Canada or bring one of YOUR CHOICE from Moroccco and try to settle there (in Canada) without your parents if necessary.
I have several daughters myself and I would never forcr them to move to Morocco because I like to do so.
Having said all the above, I still think that you should not disrespect your parents. Try to persuade them to see things your way without having to loose respect for each other.
As for your brother going around with you, most of the time is to protect you from others and not the other way round. You must understand that some of the youth in Morocco have lost all the respect that our parents had for each other.
This I know from experince because I take my girls to Morocco and the things that they tell me that the Moroccan youth say to thhem, I could not repeat in this respectable website. In fact I wish I had a son to go around with his sisters.
So be proud and keep you chin up as good Muslim, good Moroccan, good Canadian and a blessed, obedient daughter to your parents.
Pray a lot and ask Allah for guidance and forget the guidance of CHAYATEEN!
May Allah Bless you,
Wassala

To ukexpat.
I am afraid you are discribing Morocco with a foreigner's eye.
Granted,there is a lot happening,the country is moving in the
right direction but it lacks all the things one would find under
Obama or Cameroon (rights,freedom etc....) I could go on but
let's not make this political.
I've lived in Blitey for 28 years(Zmegri like you call us)and I go
3 to 4 times a year back to Morocco and I can assure you it's
not all ladida like you say,furthermore European are treated
differently from the natives.I am very happy for you that you're
enjoying it there.Bonne chance.
As for little myousra I am sure she'll find soon enough what we
saying to her,anyway having a canadian passport

Hi everyone
i was wondering if anyone whos been living (born) abroad for a long time recently moved back (or is thinking about moving back) to morocco
My family wants to move back to morocco, we (the kids) arent so sure how thats gonna be like.. my parents have been praising about how life is soooo much different there, that you can actually LIVE (god only knows what they mean by that)..yada yada yada.. but the truth is, i feel like an outsider whenever i visit...i never know how to act and it seems theres NOTHING i can do without my brother or someone supervising me..
