Description: For many, Morocco conjures up images of Bogart or the mystery of narrow streets winding past ancient walls, but a successful stay depends on coming to terms with a much deeper reality. At times the experience may frustrate you. Culture Shock! Morocco offers invaluable insights into the Moroccan world and helpful hints on how you can find a place in it. From the daily details of shopping and getting around town to the implications of Islamic tradition, through topics such as language, food and entertaining, customs, relationships and doing business.
