Habiba El Kasri was born in Casablanca, and has been traveling to all parts of Morocco since a very young age. Moving far away from touristic traps. She is a professional travel designer bringing these authentic connections to life with her company Asgunfa. She works with experienced local drivers and guides in all parts of the country. Throughout her trips, she handpicks the most traditional accommodations including riads and experiences that will have a positive impact on the people and the planet.
In this conversation, Chrsitine and Habiba talk about the ways she puts these ideas into practice and talks about visiting female cooperatives, eco- friendly lodging and tree planting projects she's involved in. Habiba also shares why she's so passionate about getting visitors to Morocco off the beaten path and what this offers both travelers and communities.
