Restoring Desert Beauty Volunteer at Tagounite, Morocco

Travelers seeking a unique and enriching experience should consider volunteering at our place, nestled in the pristine, tranquil locale with pure, unpolluted air and beautiful weather. It's where you'll uncover the profound meaning of "wabi-sabi," appreciating the beauty in imperfections and the transience of life.

Here, time moves at a slow, graceful pace, allowing you to shed the burdens of the past and rediscover your true self amidst the breathtaking Erg Lihoudi desert, surrounded by warm-hearted Berber people. In my family's village of Tagpunite, you'll be welcomed with open arms, invited to stay in our home. You'll have the opportunity to immerse yourself in our culture and cuisine, learning to cook like a local.

I'm Nourdin, 23 years old, and I've been fortunate to call this place home all my life. Living here is a gift, a testament to the philosophy of savoring life's simple, imperfect beauty and the profound connections we build with the land and its people. Come join us on this journey of self-discovery and cultural immersion.

Our family, the Tuareg Berber family, has a rich history of nomadic life and a deep connection to the desert, especially the Erg Lihoudi. We've moved from town to town, seeking tranquility and sustenance for our camels. As a close-knit family, we've decided to establish a small desert camp in this beautiful desert, but unforeseen circumstances like COVID have led to challenges. Currently, our camp is not fully operational, and we are seeking assistance to expand and enhance our facilities. We've created a WordPackers account to connect with potential volunteers and experts who can help with SEO, recovery, and other aspects to rebuild and expand our camp. We are eager to build more rooms and share our skills in crafting, using simple tools to create bricks, and other essential tasks to build and improve the camp. Volunteers can expect to be treated as part of our extended family. You will experience the genuine warmth and hospitality of the Berber people. We will work together to create something meaningful, and your contribution will be highly valued. We are open to new ideas and welcome more volunteers to join us in this endeavor. Together, we can bring our vision to life and continue our connection to the desert and its beauty.

Nourdin and his family were so kind and warm to me, I felt really welcomed! I got to live and eat with them during Ramadan, so I was able to learn a lot about their culture. The desert was so beautiful, I could spend much time making art there, which was great. All in all it was an amazing experience! :)

This was an amazing experience where I really got to learn about the culture and experience new things, everyone was also very kind and welcoming.
I would recommend going with friends or to coordinate with other travellers just because the camp is quite small and there are times when you might be by yourself.
The location is also beautiful and there are opportunities to explore to desert even more and see some spectacular sunsets.
