MOROCCO Isn't What I Expected! (Culture Shock as an American)🇺🇸🇲🇦

Inspired by @GabrielTravelerVideos, I crossed the border from Ceuta, Spain to Morocco before taking a taxi to Tetouan and then Fes, Morocco. While there was some culture shock, I was pleasantly suprised by many things, especially the Moroccan people. Find out in this video!

Adventure Elliot is a bilingual travel vlogger (English and Spanish) with a particular interest in the Spanish speaking world. I enjoy taking adventures - big or small - and my goal is to show the Spanish speaking world 1 video at a time.
The goal of my channel is simple yet complex: I want to document and share authentic & educational content of anything related to Adventure Travel, Geography, & Language in the Spanish-speaking world. It's kind of a loaded topic, but it allows me to never exhaust my creative outlets. The truth is, I've always been extremely passionate about what I'm doing on my channel, but I never properly documented it when I started adventuring as a younger man in my college years. I've made over 150 Youtube videos in both English and Spanish, and I have aspirations to make 1000s more. If that sounds interesting to you, join the community and follow me along the way.. After all, we're just getting started.

Morocco is one of the best countries I every visited. The people are so friendly and the architecture is fabulous. A big Morocco fan from Canada!

Im married to a Moroccan for almost 15 years with two half white and Moroccan daughters. Our second home is in Morocco and let me tell you I maybe born American but Im more Moroccan in heart cause the culture was so powerful it stole me away! There is nothing more to say Morocco is the best all around!

[sasisybor]

I m also russian but I live in Morocco in Alhoceima and Moroccans are super friendly people

Morocco is one of the best countries I visited. People are so kind and hospitable. One thing I noticed was how clean Morocco streets were and it's very delicious food. They are so intelligent, they can speak any language. Can’t wait to go back!!

Im Spanish and my husband is from Tetouan in Morocco and I agree with you the People there are really nice and polite. Our daughter loves Morocco every time that she visits her father's family she wont back to Spain, She always enjoys a lot there greetings from Spain 🇪🇦😊🇲🇦

[Marouane]

This is excellente.
Morocco it’s not like Europe or America
Morocco is like Morocco !

[houdaz]

You know what.. I'm Moroccan.. And whenever I saw videos of foreigners visiting my country and saying that people are nice and friendly (and even people from around the world saying the same in the comments) I was like "really?? are we that hospitable to make almost every visitor say the same thing??". But last month I went to Turkey and stayed there for like 2 weeks.. It was there where I realized how kind and friendly our people are.. You really don't appreciate what you have until you are deprived if it..
Thanks for giving my country a chance and thanks for your visit.. I hope you enjoy your stay and have lots of fun 💐
Last but not least Long live my dear Morocco 🇲🇦✌️💚

I am Moroccan but unfortunately I wasn't born in Morocco and I grew up abroad, every time I come back to Morocco, I feel that my heart relaxes and I want to stay there forever, i went to morocco this summer after 5 years. I only stayed for a month and yet I am very attached to Morocco, I cried too much and I didn't want to leave, and that's when I realized that no matter how much you live in a foreign country you will never feel the same as what you feel for your real country, I am very proud to be Moroccan and I am looking forward to next summer to be able to return there!

I was born and raised in Morocco as a Filipina and honestly, although it's not perfect, no place will ever compare to it because of all the memories I made here with the people I love.

That "Awili" made me cry at 7:36 you should have known that with girls in Morocco only a handshake will do.
The kisses in the cheek is reserved between girls 😂😂😂

[karimmounir]

To be honest, I left Morocco in the mid 70's. I am now in Morocco. What progress. This kingdom deserves all the respect. This is a peaceful revolution. Bravo x 1000 times❤️🇲🇦👍👏👏👏👏👏👏

[dafnem]

Looks much safer than I thought. The food looks delicious too. I love Moroccan tea, the best… Safe travels!!!

[GentlemanQ]

Just one little remark ky friend, don't expect all people to be open to you touching them or kissing their cheeks, especially women. Some people are fine by thay kinda culture but don't be surprised when you're faced with denial sometimes. It's part of morocco morals and culture, as well as religious beliefs.

[MessiXRonaldo]

I am Moroccan and to be honest
It’s an absolute wonderful country

[AM]

I’m half Moroccan and every time I get to visit our relatives there I find it hard to leave, it’s such a beautiful country

[lama]

[TravelAddictGuy]

[manuelortegainiguez]

For real !??? ... . I don't know what you expected. !!! Always with you Elliot. No matter where you go, you'll find people is kind with you . Fantastic video anyway

[brahimrahali]

Morocco is fascinating because of its culture, history and people. I'm glad that you made the northern prettyTetouan as a starting point to explore Morocco as most tourists head to Marrakesh straight on! Whatever you do, don't you dare to forget visiting Chefchaouen, the Indigo town! It is beautiful!
Keep exploring, Elliot!
