Culture Nuggets 🌍

So I decided to try doing a podcast about the different cultures, cuisines and friends I've met during my time living in Spain! Check it out by clicking the link below the video!!! https://anchor.fm/culturenuggets

Unfortunately I haven't had much to post due to the pandemic. This blog was dedicated to my Adventures overseas. Now that I'm back home in Detroit, Michigan I'll be blogging about fun things to do here! Most places have reopened this past Monday so hopefully I'll be going on a few local adventures so I can get back to blogging!! Stay tuned.....

During my anniversary week in Morocco, I went for an hour camel ride through the desert. It was super fun! I made new friends, rubbed the cute camels and practiced my basic Arabic. I used an agency called Civitatis. They organize trips and events in several destinations around the world. Here's a link to the Culture Nuggets podcast about my time in Morocco: https://anchor.fm/culturenuggets/episodes/The-Evil-Eye-and-The-Forbidden-Hand-eevn9a https://www.civitatis.com/en/marrakech/quad-biking-camel-riding-tour 🙋مايا لاما 

Ciao bella! Rome was super fun! I spent a week here for my 28th birthday. I visited historical monuments that I learned about in ancient history class at Wayne State! I was so into that class and to actually visit these places just blew my mind away and made that knowledge come to life!!! In this video clip you will see the Colosseum. Here's a link to the Culture Nuggets podcast episode about my visit to the Colosseum: https://anchor.fm/culturenuggets/episodes/Fight-to-the-death-Gladiator-Style-ej0jkr

I roamed around so much, I started to learn my way around the city without a map or asking for directions. I'd like to think that whenever I go back for a visit I'll still remember my way around but, only time will tell. Here's a quick snippet of my trip to Rome. 🇮🇹

I love couscous, what more can I say? LOL 🧡 Couscous  is still known as the Moroccan national dish.  Couscous  is made from semolina, which is the hard part of the grain of hard wheat. Water is used to bind two different sizes of the husked and crushed semolina. Unlike other types of pasta you may be familiar with,  couscous  resembles small pellets. Here's an episode from the Culture Nuggets podcast about Moroccan couscous: https://anchor.fm/culturenuggets/episodes/The-Evil-Eye-and-The-Forbidden-Hand-eevn9a https://www.wonderopolis.org › wh...
