A house in Fez : building a life in the ancient… por Suzanna Clark

Interesting story. Definitely some interesting lessons learned, but I expected and they should expected this buying a house in a country like Morocco, where they don’t speak the local language and are buying a a historically significant section of the city. Sadly after a while it seemed like a text book on renovating a house in Morocco. There wasn’t enough about Fez and I never felt I got to know many of the characters they had to work with.
