AMIDEAST in Rabat, Morocco

The Middle East/North Africa region is certainly not for everybody, but for Arabic students and those interested seeing a society entirely unlike their own, there is no replacement for Morocco. The country itself is beautiful, the language (while indeed quite difficult) can be learned through hard work, and the people of Morocco as a whole are hospitable in ways I never expected. Additionally, AMIDEAST itself, through its support network, academics, and cultural expertise, was as helpful as an organization could be in helping me with my personal abroad goals. For an Arabic learner interested in both learning the language and seeing the Middle East itself, there simply is no substitute.
