No Experience Required

The engine kicks, dust blooms, and the palms along the reservoir flash past like green fingers. You leave the city’s mosaic of alleys behind and drive toward the red slopes and scrub of the High Atlas foothills; the track narrows, rocks chatter under the buggy, and isolated Berber hamlets appear on the horizon.
