Essaouira is a charming port city on Morocco’s Atlantic coast. A place that I was longing to visit since the day I saw it on Game of Thrones. It was in Season 3 of Game of Thrones when Daenerys travelled to Astapor aka Essaouira and bought the army of Unsullied in exchange for one of her dragons.
‘Why Morocco?’ was a question that everybody asked me when I told them about my plans for visiting the country. Here in India, not many are familiar with this country. Even I wasn’t sure about it until I met my friend Soukaina from Morocco. We used to work together and bonded well over memes and other things.
