| 5th December 2006 Zoulagh Abdelaziz | Welcome for the volunteers in Morocco - From: Leaving Sefrou Hi, I was reading your article about Morocco, It's amazing!... You said: "There is an old saying in Morocco that a woman only leaves her house twice: once for her wedding and once for her funeral." It isn't true!!! It's absolutely false!!! Imagine someone in the usa read your article and s/he had never got hte chance to visit Morocco, What s/he will think about moroccan women... It's a grat insult for us!!! Anyways, thank you... By the way, I saw you in Sefrou, I was in your party, yes it was very nice and great party, I liked Shreek music very much,... I hope you're doing well in Kalaat Saraghna, I hope you good luck,... Aziz, |

| 13th September 2006 Jesselyn | - From: VSN Training at my pad My very own Ez, I find it very amusing that I'm reading your blog because I'm down in the capitol, the only place in the wee country of Togo that has internet connection fast enough for me to have the patience to check out your bloggy blog. Regardless, I'm IN Lome in fact for, lo, Peer Support Network training! Oh, how are spirits are linked from south to north on this continent. A 05-06-07 baby!!! Take care of that arm, and, yes, I thank dear sweet Buddha only a small part of your beautiful bod was effected. Much love sweetness, can't wait till you're my personal chef down here...no, no really I'll spoil you rotten with my rotten veggies that I get, yes, once every 2 weeks since I am one of those health volunteer kids. Amour!!!!!!!!!! et Bisous! |

| 23rd July 2006 Katie Hadar | Most Interesting - From: Fish and Chips Heather, This happens to be the most interesting blog entry you have made. Well, it closely rivals the entry you made about freaking out over oil on the pasta, that was funny too. I don't think you should candy-coat anything, it's not like any reasoning human being can't see through that anyway. I am surprised by your reaction to the harrasment, though I agree with your conclusion: we are not in America any more, Toto. Italy was much the same for me. I learned how to deal with it eventually, no direct eye contact, no response (unless it was to correct someone who had called me German, honestly, how is that a pick-up line? "Eh Tedesca!"). A slow, meandering gait was always an invitation for an assault. One day I was in the park reading Tale of Two Cities, and it was at the very end and I was crying like a little baby as the pairs of lovers were reunited- one to life and the other to the guillotine, and this guy sat down on the bench and tried to hit on me. I almost hit him. Instead I screamed in Italian: "CAN'T YOU SEE THAT I AM READING YOU MORON! I DO NOT LIKE YOU AND I DO NOT WISH TO SPEAK WITH YOU RIGHT NOW!!!!" It can be exhausting though. Keep up the good work. You are free to compare and contrast. You are not betraying anyone. This comment is really long. I do not know if it will even post. Katie |
| 12th July 2006 Aurora | Enjoying the stories... - From: Big Changes Back Home Heather, I don't know if you remember me, I'm Aurora. I was thinking of you and decided to check out the blog. I'm enjoying your stories you are sharing with everyone. Some of the things you talk about I can relate to my own experiences as a PCV. I'm so proud of you and everything that you are doing! I know time seems endless in Morocco, especially in the summer months. Believe me, one day you will be reminescing (sp?) about those special times (especially the most difficult ones) and wonder why time flew the way it did. Savor each moment in the land of contrasts ( I agree). I wanted to add that it is not too early to think about the future past your PC service in Morocco. Network and make those lasting connections because you never know what the future will hold. Please give Maryam and Salma a huge hug on my behalf! Take care! Aurora |
| 9th July 2006 cris | montalon? - From: Une randonée dans la Drome I know the Montalon family's from st barthelemy de vals is it same family? |
| 16th June 2006 Lynn Wood | Inspired - From: Another exciting weekend sitting around home Heather you are truly an inspiration. When I read your journal I get lost in your adventure and can imagine the daily frustrations of learning a new language; of which I am sure is multiplied compared to what I felt learning a latin based language. I have to share a funny story-- I sat next to a gal in chemistry that was from Persia and she took notes in her native language. One day she asked if she was absent if she could borrow my notes and she would lend me hers if I ever needed them. When I glanced down at her paper it looked like a fantastic tapestry made of lead and paper, not chemistry notes! So for what its worth I think you are amazing and I think you are doing a really great thing. |
| 29th May 2006 MPK | reponse - From: Another exciting weekend sitting around home salutHEATHER C'EST BIEN DE CONTINUER L'ARABE MAIS COMME TU FAIS PRESQUE DE L 'Immersion CA DEVRAIT bien MARCHER J'ai trouve ta ville tu es bien sur le haut Atlas Amities MPK |
| 3rd May 2006 Laura | I concur - From: A tourist in the desert I agree, the 'Sunrise' photo will be one of those that will seem surreal after you leave Morocco. You look beautiful and serene. |
| 29th April 2006 Katie | Wow, Heather - From: A tourist in the desert That 'Sunrise' picture will be one of those pictures you look at long after you return home. If my experiences indicate anything, it will take on surreal quality at some point and it will be hard to iagine yourself back there. It reminds me of a picture I have of my mom when she was younger than I am now. She was so beautiful and mysterious. That is how you look in that picture. |
| 25th March 2006 kathy falk | SPRING TIME & MEMORIES - From: Happy Spring! HEATHER, YOUR WRITINGS ARE SO FABULOUS! WHAT A JOY TO FOLLOW YOU THROUGH YOUR TRAVELS AND LIFE EXPERIENCES. I HAVE A REAL FEELING THAT YOUR MEMORIES WILL BLOOM IN THE LIVES OF THE PEOPLES YOU HAVE COME IN CONTACT WITH , LIKE THE SPRING TIME LUPINE. SO, IN THE YEAR 2047 THERE WILL BE MEN/WOMEN/CHILDREN TALKING ABOUT THAT "PCV" HEATHER, FROM IDAHO, USA. :-) AND MAY PEACE BE WITH YOU AND YOUR FRIENDS. |

| 26th February 2006 Elka | - From: Ben Guerir I just can't wait to start travelling again. Your experiences always inspire me sweetie. How fascinating. Love ya. E |
| 23rd February 2006 Bart | That's about me! - From: Ben Guerir Hey Heather. I'm glad you got to see my town and meet my family. I guess it's my turn next! My website is www.xanga.com/extremefrolfman View with extreme caution and with a frisbee. Enjoy Tinjdad. |
| 17th February 2006 WildChild | Excellent!! - From: Lasting Impressions: Errachidia I love reading your comments. I'm learning a lot about Morocco just from reading. Loving the detail. XOXO |
| 13th February 2006 huff | class - From: Saturday is not a day off I was wondering if any students in my class are sending you any replies.?? I have put a link to your blog on the class weg site. huffer |
| 13th February 2006 huff | feedback - From: Saturday is not a day off Wow, sounds like your are having a very interesting experience. Couldn't help but react to your discussing the cartoon thing with your class. Info from this end is that most of my peers can't understand what the outrage is about. After all, cartoons about "our religion" are very common and even when people get upset about something they don't burn things down and kill people. Outrage is one thing, murder is another.... I wonder if some of the chasm between western and other pt. of view is the fact that freedom of speech is not so common in much of the world. anyway... huffer |
| 3rd February 2006 HFW | - From: Weekend Getaway yeah, but did you play them Lucero while they ate the dinner? |
| 17th January 2006 Anisa | Eid Mubarak! - From: Getting L-Eide Eid Mubarak Heather! I hope you enjoy Eid, I must say I never actually watched a sheep being slaughtered... you're much tougher than me! |
| 14th November 2005 Madam Josephine | Doing my spiritual taxes - From: Burning Man / Hippocampus When I was invited in to do my spiritual accounting I knew what to expect. I’m no virgin; I have been around the playa a few times; a ritual or two, something to burn at the man, a trinket and a see you around. Pleasant but not that special, it would take 5 minutes, tops. Well after 5 minutes with Heather I realized this was going to be different. These Hippos really wanted to connect with their "clients". We talked and shared and it was wonderful, another of those unexpected treats that make burning man such a joy. Craig, who led the theme camp I stayed with last year, also has joined the Peace Corp so I am now getting two perspectives on that experience. I get to hear about him in Gambia and Heather in Morocco. There are three themes so far in common, abbreviations, (I keep thinking PVC as in PVC pipe for plumbing when I see PCV.) struggling with a new language and playing frisbee with the locals. |
| 31st October 2005 Hanne | I miss you!! - From: Technical Difficulties for Halloween I remembered getting hit on in Egypt. It was fun trying to have a conversation with those crazy man in every language that they tried to aproach me with. I made up a new identity every day. They were so confused! |
| 20th October 2005 Laura | You rock - From: An Apricot of Topics Heathercita, I love living vicariously through you. You put sparkle in my day. |
| 12th October 2005 alex | scrubbing ey! - From: Baba and the Hemmans ello mouse,just in class and kinda boredand i was wondering what you are up to in the core! hope the experence is interesting, and it sounds like you are keeping cleen. its getting cold here now and the leaves are changing. haloween is comng up and should be a good time. i am going as a speed demon! immagen hair flowing at a 45 degree angle and bright red (perment, thanks to lots of hairspray) and every other garment at that same angle for the duration of the evening. all devilishly stiking colors incorperated. and lots of beer to top it all off! hope u are stayig well and learing quickly. how is the food? i am sure simple and yummy. ...later...alex.... |
| 12th October 2005 Betsy | What a life! - From: Baba and the Hemmans I feel like I must be washing up in a dump compared to you. You have a 2 hour washing every Sunday and I take ten minute showers in a bathroom with a large hole in the ceiling that I share with two strange men! Ah, the dichotomy between what Americans consider 1st World and 3rd!!! |
| 6th October 2005 Anisa | - From: Teaching in Morocco I love the mendhi in the previous journal! You look gorgeous, but just a warning... when I wore it in Kenya everyone asked if I was getting married (I was 13 at the time...) :) You sound like you're having the time of your life, girl... so jealous. Looking at the pictures makes me ache to visit Morocco... maybe June?? Is that a good time? |
| 27th September 2005 Maria Trebby | You really are on a journey! - From: Last day in Fès Wow! Everything sounds and looks so exotic and inviting. I can hardly wait to tell the students about the names of your family members. There is an Aisha, Malicka, Mohammed, Antoine and Salim in the classes this year. They wanted to have names that people in Morocco might have. Pretty cool, eh? Take care of yourself and keep the blogs coming. I adore them and love sharing them with the students. Miss you! |
| 25th September 2005 anonymous | - From: Last day in Fès sounds like your doing great. when you get to your final resting place I am going to put a link to your blog for my 101 class-- so you will have a substantial audiance. Might want to start with brief summary. whatever. love, huffer |
| 24th September 2005 Hanne | Punk F....ing Rock! - From: Last day in Fès I am so jealous of you right now! Not saying that D.C. is boring, but I want to be a travelling bohrmian right now; you know, just travelling around, learning languages and eating without utensils! I miss you bunches! Stay safe. ---H |

| 13th September 2005 Jill Jasper | On To The Future - From: Art Cars & Punk Rock Mornings I suspect Heather is too busy to blog right now. She flew out from JFK airport yesterday, landed in Casablanca this AM, and took a bus to Rabat. She is traveling with 52 other Peace Corps volunteers, and says they are all "awesome." She has her computer with her and will have internet access for at least three months. Watch for more. |
