Journeys through Morocco
and into the desert
Travelling with me and
my friends, the nomads
More than 30 years ago I was in the desert for the first time. In 2012 I came to Morocco. Since then this country has never let me go.
Perhaps it is my Sicilian nature that feels so at home here. The liveliness, the unplanned, the warmth of the people, the temperament. Morocco is full of contrasts and surprises. And that is exactly what I love.
No plan is the best plan.
I learned this sentence from the nomads. It does not mean travelling without preparation. It means staying open to whatever life has in store right now.
Morocco has taught me to let go of plans, to question what I am used to and to open myself to the unknown. It was not always easy. This country has also challenged and tested me. But that is exactly where its special gifts lie for me.
Morocco. Where the unplanned becomes experience.
I do not want to tick off a bucket list with you. I want to take you into a Morocco that I have come to know over many years and that is very close to my heart.
On road trips right across this wonderful country, over the mountains of the High Atlas, to markets full of voices, colours and smells, to the Atlantic, to small villages and out into the endless vastness of the desert.
We meet people, stay where we like it and let life surprise us. Not everything has to be planned. Often it is the unplanned moments that touch us most. And along the way, we begin to see some things in life with different eyes.
You travel with me and my friends, the nomads. People with whom a deep bond has grown over many years. In the desert we share life with them, sit together by the fire, tell stories, laugh and enjoy the simplicity of the moment. With them we can open ourselves to the unknown and still feel safe, protected and held.
Because for me, travelling does not mean seeing as much as possible. It means really being there, opening yourself to life and becoming part of it for a while.

For me, my love of travelling and my more than 30 years of experience with dance, yoga, tai chi and bodywork belong together quite naturally.
Every journey has its own character. Along the way I pass on my knowledge and teach you movement sequences and an understanding of your body that you can keep deepening after the journey.
For me, every journey is also an inner journey. The sun does not always shine. Sometimes it gets uncomfortable and we go through something. And precisely through that we find joy in life again, a sense of meaning or a new vision.
Because we do not experience the world only with our eyes. We smell, taste, hear, feel and move in it.
Voices
“I rediscovered my inner calm, my self-confidence and the feeling of being beautiful in my body in the desert. It did not happen overnight. But on the fourth day, when we saw the great dunes in front of us, I finally felt I had arrived.”
“The desert as a spiritual place loosened and cleared something in me. I feel lighter, freer and more alive.”
“While dancing I felt the woman in me again. The desert awakened great gratitude in me for everything.”
Stories from Morocco (in German)
Again and again I see how travelling changes people. Going to another place changes your point of view. And your tolerance towards other people and the way they do things. We simply complain less and live more.
We no longer think everything has to go the way we are used to. Perhaps others have pretty good ideas too.
