Hi everybody-
I’m married to a Moroccan from Tinerhir - I studied via the Peace Corps manual, too, but found the transliteration too weird - then I took classes in Rabat where they used Arabic script exclusively, and I improved a lot!
My husband and I live part time in Morocco, and part time in the States - right now, though, he’s in Tinerhir and I’m in Ohio, we’re both working!
