“The Sahara on Camelback”
By Marisa Sleeter


The experience that challenged my views of the world was my trip to Morocco,” wrote Marisa Sleeter when she submitted the above photo to the Study Abroad Photo Contest in August. “I found the economic situation and lifestyle in Morocco was truly a drastic change from anything I had ever seen. We made a trip to the Medina (center) of a city called Fez, where I bargained with a leather salesman for a small chair and saw the workers actually tanning and dying the leather. I even got to ride a camel through the Sahara desert.” For more photos, go to Academe
