"DIML in Photos!" by Verena Im

I woke up at 7am and had a delicious breakfast of msmen with Nutella and bananas, a hard-boiled egg, and Moroccan a’te (tea). 

My OOTD… left my apartment at 8:15am to walk to Amideast. 

My first class starts at 8:50, and today we had a henna workshop in Arabic class. 

After class, I went to an event at the Mohammed V Faculty of Humanities for a film screening hosted by one of my professors from Amideast. We watched a movie called “Rabat.”

Then I grabbed lunch at Connect Café in Agdal. I had a kefta sandwich, fries, and Moroccan tea. P.S. Connect Café is such a great study spot in Agdal; it’s super quiet and even has a non-smoking section, alhamdulillah! 

My friends joined me at the café later.

Then we took a tuk-tuk to the beach and swam until sunset.

The beautiful sunset.

I finally went home for the day and had a delicious dinner of sifa with dejaj.
