- My AMAZING Morocco Experience 🇲🇦 | The Need For Cross-Cultural Dialogue
A few years ago I did a Summer Semester abroad in Morocco and it was life-changing. We traveled to Casablanca, Marrakech, Fes, and the High Atlas Mountains (amongst a few other places). But the most anticipated event was the 'Intercultural Dialogue', where we had a chance to talk to Moroccan students in-depth about all sorts of issues. It was one of the most eye-opening experiences I've had and it represented a special kind of education for me about people and the world as a whole.
All in all, it was an amazingly immersive travel experience, and I'm always grateful for the opportunity to have participated.

Ah Richie, always making me laugh haha....thank you for that and your puns are always the highlight. I absolutely agree with everything you said and I was nodding viciously at my laptop screen....I know both of us have had many of these conversations in IV over our meals, which I always cherish. As for the video, it was amazing of you to note down the tips/how to have a cross-cultural dialogue....education is usually one of the most effective core solution piece when it comes to solving/getting rid of a problem. Also, having ground rules before you start your dialogue are necessary when it is so easy to step on toes and have the conversation turn ugly which then fuels the misunderstandings further. As always, thank you for sharing these insights and spreading amazing knowledge which many may have a hard time verbalizing or even getting across given that in cross-cultural discussions, most of the time they are presented in unpeaceful manners.
Thank you for always being there! 😊 I miss those conversations over dinner 😄
@@RichPerspectives hopefully one day soon we will be back at it
As a Nigerian i love Morocco so much and i think i might get married to a Moroccan lady
get out
you don't marry a moroccan woman because you want to live there... disgusting
I spend three weeks on vacation in Morocco in October/November 2021 and fell in love with the country.
Now I live there permanently and am married to an amazing Moroccan woman. 😃
I tap from your blessing bro, I'm a Nigerian and also base in Nigeria but I'm planning on relocating to Morocco but I had there is no job and the country is poor that I'm gonna suffer, but I don't still care I'll come very soon if I can survive in Nigeria there's no country I won't survive
Your video editing/making skills are awesome! Your channel deserves to grow more and more
Thank you so much!
Insightful … your eyes are beautiful. They sparkle ✨
dudeee I from brasil and I try to learn English, I found ur channel and it helped me a lot, I really want to be polyglot so u are helped me to realize a dream thxs so much
Hey! Thanks for watching, and I’m glad I could help :)
I absolutely love Morocco. I have been 9 times and still have only just scratched the surface of learning about the country. Very informative video. Your eloquent perspective hits the nail on the head. If only the world leaders shared it. We can all learn something from stepping out of our comfort zones occasionally to experience other cultures. Keep on truckin
Great insights into the value of travelling, how to handle differences, and what it takes to survive in a foreign environment (street smarts) 😊
You’ve also piqued my interest in the country itself. 🇿🇦
This video makes me want to visit so badly! What a great experience :)
Mesale Gessesse the comment I’ve been waiting for!! 😄
I enjoy watching your videos Richard. Especially the endings ❤️
I am going to send this to my father and Mrs. Hamman, I'm sure they'll enjoy this video.
H Thank you!!! I really appreciate your support and the feedback 😊🙏🏾
What you say and what you shed lights on in this video are so profound. I'm so glad as a (French) originally from Morocco to see that you love this country. Indeed, Morocco has a very special place in North Africa, therefore it has been the most visited African country these last years. Thanks for putting forward the rural Morocco, because apart from Casablanca, Marrakesh and Tangier, there is a lot to see in this North African kingdom, and especially in the rural areas :)
And when it comes to cross-cultural experience, I am about to study one year at Cape Coast University in Ghana ! If you have some Ghanaian contacts, I'd be so happy to message them and have their contacts with me in case of need :)
Hey, thanks for watching. And I’m glad you agree!
this was fantastic!
MOON DAME - LIFESTYLE, DIYs Thank you!
Brilliant!👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Wow what kind of schools you go to where you travel and go on tours 🤔 we don't have that in Morocco 😭😭😭
any time, and thanks for the video,
This is great Richard. Thank you for conjuring up such beautiful memories. You brought such a wonderful light to the dialogues, which is key to a successful ICD. Exquisite film footage and storytelling, bro!
Hamza Weinman Hey Hamza! Thanks so much for watching. And thanks again for being a great host! 😁
@@RichPerspectives Would you give us permission to share this on our FB page, Instagram and perhaps on the website?
Hamza Weinman Yes, of course!
Welcome to your second home ❤❤
You still there brother? Thinking of retiring in Morocco. My father is Moroccan my mother Algerian.
Thanks for this trip down memory lane. I was on the same Intercultural Dialogue club, you probably don't remember me but I do haha( I'm the girl who made the skit about homosexuality in Morocco) 😊 It was such a fun weekend and I'm glad to hear about your journey in my country 🙏🏽🙏🏽🧡 keep up the good work.
Hippie hipster Thanks for watching! 😊 It was very nostalgic for me making this video. Good times! Can’t wait to come back to Morocco
this trip was through your school? I'd love to take a trip like this.
Really enjoyed your video...Do you remember the name of the place in Ourika? Thank you
Thanks for watching! Unfortunately I don’t remember the name of the place 😭
Hi, its Kevin from Vancouver Canada. we need to hire a couple of people as a remote research and office management wondering if you or other friend know a job search in Morocco in English
Heyyyy you should have come visited me!! (I"m from morocco) I love your videos but I do have one question, Como está o seu português?
My Portuguese is okay, haven’t practiced in a long time 😅
🇲🇦🇲🇦🇲🇦🇲🇦💯⬆️⬆️💯
Please there's a connection from Morocco to Spain
Have you given up on learning Brazilian Portuguese?
No I haven't!
If you ever say “Best experience “SO Far” should be it.
Achei que você estivesse a fim de aprender o português BRASILEIRO 🇧🇷
Nice video, but if you just only went to the places you showed us in this video, you just saw maybe only 10% of Morocco. You’re welcome to vist our country a second time!
Yes I agree! I want to come back and see much more.
Rich Perspectives you’re always welcome!
Bros pls 🙏 how can i discuss with you privately
Moroccan Arabic called “Darija” and its totally different from the real Arabic. Its sounds more as a Western language than Arabic. Not everyone speaks Darija, 50% speaks Tamazight (Berber) and the others speak Darija. Also it s good to know that we aint arabs, we are Berbers, also the Darija speaking Moroccans. They mixed the language of the Koran (arabic) with our origin language (Berber) and thats how Darija excisted. So we aint Arabs, but we are considered as an Arab country🙃 like Sudan and Somalia🤦🏻♂️😂
Utrecht 030 It’s pretty interesting how history, geography, anthropology and culture all combine, right? 😄
Rich Perspectives yeah it is!
@N.K150 Moroccans are arab??😂😂😂😂😂 please do a dna test and we will continue with this conversation. If ypu dont have the money, search at youtube for Moroccan dna test. Almost everybody have no arab blood, youre fucking manupliated man. 90% speaks darija as first language??😂😂😂 you have almost 20 million people from the Rif, Atlas and souss, amd they all speaks Tamazight. They speak darija as their first languagebhe said😂😂 please stfu you are an Amazigh who speaks darija and thinks he Arab, be proud a 3ayachi
@@RichPerspectives Moroccan Arabic is indeed called Darija, which is an Arabic dialect influenced a bit by French, Spanish, Amazigh. it's the hardest Arabic dialect to learn. unlike what the person above said, it's definitely not like a "western" language. furthermore, literally all Moroccans speak Darija or at least understand it, even the Amazighs. idk where this person got this ridiculous statistic of 50 percent Speaking Tamazight, Amazigh people tho being native, are a minority in Morocco and the majority of them move to the cities leaving the mountains so they learn Arabic. there's some racism between Amazighs and Arabs in Morocco which is retraded. this person OP sounds either racist or just retarded. Morocco is an Arab country, because Arabs invaved the country hence why we speak Arabic lmao. also there's nothing wrong with Sudan and Somalia.
start with your home country . the people need open cross culture dialogue there. because I always wondered why people wanted so much to make things better in other people's homelands and not their own. Or when people migrate to the west , not too many natives try well to understand them and their culture . I know and understand you had an assignment to do . just saying
I understand what you’re saying. But for me, it’s not really about trying to “make things better” in another country; it’s about learning about their way of life and getting to know the people. That’s why it’s a “conversation”. Definitely, I can start with my home country but that doesn’t stop me from learning and discussing with people from another country. In fact, by learning from others I can discover good ways to help my country too!
Who on Earth cares?
