AbuFulani

Yes & no. I wouldn't "burn any bridges", in case I had to get back for any serious medical issues. Maybe if you have a pension, keep that insurance active or medicare, once it becomes an option. Otherwise I would consider it a ... Read More

Fred, i try to avoid going back & forth with "educated" folks. Often the educated process is confused with the mis-educated process. The latter usually manifests itself in narrow mindedness, arrogance & condemnation of the values ... Read More

Good to know that one necesity that facilitates the issuance of Moroccan Visa for all nationals that MUST enter Morocco with visa is ..an INVITATION LETTER from someone legally staying in Morocco. In as much as i am a solid supporter of this ...

AbuFulani

Also, good 2 remember. No Visa necessary from most countries for up to 90 day stay. This is more than enough time to gather info to evaluate Morocco as a possible relocation destination. Visit before you rent. Rent before you buy. Read More
