One day I noticed that I have never seen a night sky without light pollution. So I looked at a light pollution map where the next spots with naturally dark skies are to be found. Well, I did not want to go to Syria ... and also in Norway it will not work in summer. The task was clear: drive to Morocco in the Atlas mountains when the perseid meteors shower down.
It was a great adventure and Morocco has shown its best side. The Moroccans are super hospitable, curious and will not let anyone down. A gas station attendant invited me to his home overnight, in the thunderstorm with landslides strangers offered me a roof over their heads and in the Rifbergen strangers gave me something for a nice evening ... Thank you Morocco for this adventure!
