My Most Memorable Experience
"Among many contenders, my favourite experience is visiting Oudhna, a relatively unvisited site in the north of Tunisia. Compared to others, it is relatively small, but seeing the archaeologists at work is fascinating and really makes you wonder how many more Roman ruins are left hidden under the earth!"
My Favourite Destination
My favourite destination has to be Marrakesh. It has everything, from great shopping in the souks with their smells of leather and spices, to excellent entertainment in the Djemaa el Fna with the storytellers, acrobats and tasty tagines. All this against the picturesque backdrop of the Atlas Mountains.
My Favourite Accommodation
"My favourite accomodation is Dar Chennoufi. It is a wonderfully homely guesthouse situated in the small town of Le Kef, and offers amazing service, fantastic home cooked food and a lovely swimming pool in the garden."
