American expat Maryam Montague’s My Marrakesh is consistently first-rate. Stylish and playful, yet profound and lovingly-written, this blog, like its author, is eclectic, well-traveled, highly educated and elegant. Fun, too. And she knows that life is, and should always be, a journey and adventure. Here’s one we like we can use to carry us through the Rest of the Year 2012: “A tale of a new year of new adventures.”
