Moorish Morocco Tour
I am excited to share a new project developed with my husband, Moroccan luthier and oud player Faouzi Saouli: the Moorish Morocco Tour.
24 April – 8 May, 2026
15 days & nights
Join Faouzi and I on an immersive 15-day journey through northern Morocco, a region where centuries of exchange have shaped sacred architecture, music, craftsmanship, and ways of life.
At the heart of the tour are pattern-drawing workshops, where participants learn to construct traditional geometric designs by hand. These quiet, meditative sessions offer a way to see and feel the architecture around you through rhythm, proportion, and pattern. Alongside this, workshops with Moroccan artisans open a window into the living heritage of craft and design still practiced today.
Faouzi brings his own artistry as a luthier and musician, offering insight into Morocco’s musical traditions and their deep connection to culture and history.
Together, we guide you through Fez, Chefchaouen, Tetouan, and Tangier, with visits to Meknes and the Roman ruins of Volubilis. This is slow travel, an opportunity to connect deeply with one of Morocco’s most historic and artistically rich regions, through the lens of pattern, music, and lived experience.
About Us
We met in 2014 while I was on an artist residency in Sefrou, Faouzi’s hometown near Fez. A year later we were married and living together in Casablanca. Now more than a decade on, after several years in Australia with my family, we have recently returned to Morocco to continue our shared life and creative work.
