HI guys,
i recently opened a company in casablanca in digital services. I am here to get some informations and share experiences.
@hanawenede I am from Ethiopia, I would like to join Morocco in the coming month. can you give me some information.
Hi, my name is Sophie, I'm 25 yo, I'm from Russia. I lived in Tangier, but currently living in Casablanca. I'm an art history major, I also write articles about art and fashion and draw sketches, so I know everything about art from the renaissance to the pop art of Andy Warhol. I love reading, watching french new wave films, going to museums and galleries. My hobby is sewing clothes, I've been sewing since I was 13.
I speak English and learning French, would also like to study darija in the future.
@Sofiia Lizanets Good morning Sophie. Darija is not an official language with can be learned in a normal way. Darija is more like dialect ( street language ) specific to North African countries ( with slight variations). Darija can not be learned in the classrooms and there are no official books for it. Darija can only be learned in the street by mingling with the locals. I hope that this helps.
Hello everyone and welcome on board, Sophie !
Thank you for taking the time to introduce yourself.
Have a look at the adverts posted in the Language classes in Casablanca section of the website, you might find one offering Darija.
If not, you may also create your own advert in the same section.
@Idouarab2712, thank you for your insightful comment. It will surely benefit members
All the best

Good morning,
I am from the Uk and looking to move to Morocco with my one year old son and partner. My partner has worked in Executive search in the investment markets for 20 years and I have a bsc in real estate- have worked as an Executive assistant for 12 years and founded my own household staffing agency. My partner is looking for a new challenge having worked for himself for 15 years and I am open to new opportunities or could run my business remotely.
I would hugely appreciate any pointers and contacts in the industry who may be able help us.
Best wishes,
Georgia
@Julien good afternoon! Thanks for letting me join the group. I am currently in Tangier, having lived in Essaouira for two years. I worked in Education all my life, my last job before I retired being an associate lecturer on the graduate teacher programme run by the University of Brighton.
I’m hoping to make contact with other expats to share information, advice and maybe a cup of coffee!
i enjoy arts and crafts, swimming and good conversation.
@Sofiia Lizanets hi Sofia. I just wanted to comment on the subject of learning Darija. Contrary to some replies, I know many people who have learned the language by attending classes. Where I lived, in Essaouira, were groups and one to one tutors. At the time, I decided to improve my French, but I would not hesitate to ask locally about classes as they are definitely out there!
@eestelow Hi ,you are welcom in Morocco ,for your kids don't worry thez will make friends ,people here are so friendly
@Julien there was a mistake I'm my age is 37 not 27 sorry.
Hello everyone and welcome on board to all newcomers.
For.a good start on the forum, I would recommend all new members to read the Living in Morocco guide for expats to gather as much information as possible.

Hello All,
I have just joined this forum as I made my first visit to Morocco in June for my birthday, will be visiting again in September. Would be nice to meet locals for insights & experiences, I have other personal questions which would be best discussed privately. Any experienced people with a wealth of knowledge about the country & it’s people are welcome to contact me.
I look forward to the forum and discussions, nice to meet you all!
@Isa90s Hello and welcome !
I am not sure members will automatically reach out to you in private.
I suggest that you open a new thread on the Morocco forum or the city you want to move in whilst posting your precise questions so that members can reach out (in private or on the forum).
All the best

Hi everyone!
My name is Camille. I was born in France but I have spent the last 10 years abroad. I first moved the the US for a year and then I spent 3 years studying translation in Canada. More recently, I moved from Belgium to Casablanca! I have been to Morocco before, but this is my first time in this city and I'm going to stay here for at least a year. Since I'm a newcomer, I'd like to meet locals or other expats and get to know the city better and do all sorts of activities. I'm curious to see what Casablanca has to offer. I enjoy swimming, dancing, art, dining and talking (:
@Lalalalala Welcome on board Camille !
Thank you for taking the time to introduce yourself. I wish you a smooth transition. Feel free to interact with members of the Casablanca forum should you want to network or seek advice.
All the very best
