Hippie Adventures in Magical Morocco

What happens when a hippie idealist from small-town Canada collides with the heat of North Africa, and discovers something far more enduring than rebellion?

It's the summer of 1968. The music is electric, the world is shifting, and a restless generation is leaving behind conformity to seek truth, freedom, and the miraculous. Among them is Lisette, a wide-eyed girl from Northern Ontario. When she meets Bill, a streetwise New Yorker with a dream of crossing continents, they fall into a wild, hashish-scented odyssey that leads them deep into the heart of Morocco.

Together, they wander the medinas of Tangier, brave the mountain roads of Ketama, and live among Moroccan families, witnessing the intimate rhythms of Islamic life. What begins as a hippie adventure soon becomes a cross-cultural immersion at once enchanting and unforgiving. As Lisette navigates hashish raids, patriarchal customs, mystical teachers, and profound loss, she emerges as a fierce, self-aware woman, a true feminist grounded in the magic and meaning of the East.

Arabian Nights: A Memoir of Morocco and Magic is part 1960s counterculture chronicle, part spiritual memoir, and part real-life anthropology. This is not just a tale of adventure. It is a compassionate, vivid portrait of a misunderstood culture and a personal transformation that still resonates today.

For readers of bohemian travel memoirs, Moroccan culture, spiritual journeys, or feminist awakenings, this is your next unforgettable read.
