[The photos and text presented here are the result of my work in five Amazigh (also known as Berber) communities or distinct architectural ensembles in the south of Morocco.] My work in Morocco began in May 2002 when I was invited by a former high school friend of Moroccan descent to photograph his father's native village, Timkatti. This place of mud and stone is located in the Ida Ou Tannane region about forty miles north of Agadir. Like most Westerners invited into a traditional community, I was overwhelmed by all that appeared exotic and as a photographer I was drawn to it. Thés berbères, tajines et pastillas.

The Food of Morocco by Paula Wolfert - Review. When I began my own exploration of Moroccan cooking some 18 years ago, my Moroccan in-laws and friends convinced me that no Moroccan cookbook in English could possibly be of use to me.
Proper Moroccan cooking, they assured me, was learned by watching. And so that’s what I did for many years, until I finally began collecting Moroccan cookbooks as part of my work for About.com. The first book I acquired, Paula Wolfert’s Couscous and Other Good Food from Morocco (1973), was an epiphany for me. Casablanca. Casablanca (Moroccan Arabic pronunciation: [kɑzɑblɑnkɑ], also الدار البيضاء ed-Dar el-Biḍa lit: "White house"), the largest city of Morocco, is located in the western part of the country on the Atlantic Ocean.
It is also the largest city in the Maghreb, as well as one of the largest and most important cities in Africa, both economically and demographically. The leading Moroccan companies and international corporations doing business there have their headquarters and main industrial facilities in Casablanca. Recent industrial statistics show Casablanca retains its historical position as the main industrial zone of the country. The Port of Casablanca is one of the largest artificial ports in the world,[1] and the largest port of North Africa.[2] It is also the primary naval base for the Royal Moroccan Navy. Etymology[edit] The Latinized name of the city is a Portuguese word combination meaning "White house" (branca "white", casa "house").
