I WASN'T SHARING AN EXACT LOCATION, I WAS SHARING A CITY! AND TELL ME WHEN THE LAST ABDUCTION OF A TOURIST IN MOROCCO WAS, OR IN GERMANY, FOR THAT MATTER! Jesus.

Dank! Late reactie, ik was even uit de lucht, hikend in het Atlas-gebergte :-)

Germany and Morocco are definitely known for kidnappings of tourists, which indeed happens all the time! Quite the security expert haha 🙃

We started from Imlil as well :-) Will be arriving back there tomorrow. It is for sure spectacular landscape and nice people! The hikes are pretty hard for me though, I have to admit 😬

From a local in Umm al-Khair in the #Westbank we hear that the community center mentioned in my story is now a restricted military zone. Looks like the bulldozers are about to roll in. open.substack.com/pub/fgeerdin...
At any moment, Israeli bulldozers could roll into this village in Masafer Yatta

Het is racisme dat historisch diep zit in Nederland, niet 'angst'. Angst als belangrijkste oorzaak noemen, leidt af van het grotere, structurele probleem.
