The Medina: “Fez is Unique”

What is it like for you as a young modern Moroccan to live and/or work in the medina? “asks Mehdi”.

“Coming to the Medina every day feels like getting into a new different world. Consequently, Fez is unique and cannot be compared to any place in Morocco.”

Mehdi: If you had to name one dish/ delicacy that you can buy in the medina what would it be?

“Fez Medina has actually the most delicious food in the whole kingdom. Embracing different nationalities and also people with different cultural religious beliefs gave Fez the chance to have international but also authentic type of dishes. Yet, If I had to choose, I would go for the famous Chicken Pastilla.”

She says that she just love the combination of sweet and savoury flavous of this dish. Therefore, it proves that creativity and uniqueness can turn into the most sophisticated results.

Childhood Dreams

Mehdi: Can you remember a dream that you had as a child about when you grew up? Loubna: Since my early childhood, I had the dream of being in the political field, as I’ve always had the impression that there are not enough women in the domain.

When asked where She imagines herself in 5 years, then, Loubna replies. «Hard to say, however, I’m quite sure that I will be in the process of setting foot in the political field.»
