Hello/Salam to all,

My name is Veronica and I'm 29yrs old and a mother of 3 small children. My husband and I just relocated to Rabat in hopes that our children will benefit from all that Morocco has to offer.

So far it has been very difficult to adjust. I look foward to meeting other expats, hopefully with children, that would occassionally like to meet up for an outing or a simple cup of coffee.

Hello Everyone,

I'm hoping to be in Rabat in June for at least a few months. Is there such a thing (or am I dreaming?) as a small, ok apartment in a fairly good area with lots of life around for around $450 U.S./month? I'm used to living in a small space here in Mexico. A couple of criteria are: a Western-style toilet and no exposure to cigarette smoke (I'm highly allergic and have asthma). I could also share with someone. Agdal (apart from being more expensive) is probably too Westernized to suit me, but I wouldn't rule it out. Thanks for any guidance you can give me.

Salma,

Not sure if u have a facebook account, but there are several groups that are for Americans living in Morocco or English speakers that live in Morocco. Making friends has helped me tremendously.
