Hi Sarah,
My names is Ursula and I m living with my Moroccan boyfriend in London, and we too are thinking of moving to Casablanca where my bf is from in the next couple of years.
I totally understand your concerns about the moving to Maroc, it s a massive commitment and I too am unsure whether I d cope without my family and friends nearby.
So where is your partner from? I ve been doing my research into whether there is a network of western women in Morocco and came across AIWC - which is an association for English speaking women of all nationalities including Moroccans. There s also the Churchill Club which is an English speaking social club and they have an amateur drama group and there are themed dinners every month as well as other activites. Perhaps you could look at the US Embassy in Rabat, and the consulate in Casablanca websites. I mean, I can t help but think these are organisations for 50+ yr old expats and not geared towards 25yr olds like me. I must say, I ve my reservations about going, but then again, I d hate myself it if I did nt give it a go.
I also think its hard to contemplate making the move, especially if you re an independent person like me, who needs to live their own life as well as their partners. I often do my own thing and hang out with friends as well as chill out with my bf. But the thought of being a stay at home wife to be would kill me, hence why I ve made inroads as to how to get involved in charitable organisations, teaching at the American Schools etc.
Pls do get in touch and lets talk more. My email address is: urshill@yahoo.com mobile no: 0044 7940716462
Hope this message finds you soon. It seems as though we re in the same boat.
Take care
Ursula
