Three random impressions of North Africa:
Flat roofs everywhere, most suffering a rash of satellite dishes. The exteriors of buildings generally faded in a gently glowing manner - white in Casablanca, red ochre in Marrakech. The white or cream dishes often rusting, an ugly brown.
The people predominantly well-dressed. Like extras from French movies of the fifties; like something out of Camus or Sartre. Leather jackets made to look chic. Even the poor look like they care about appearances.
Irritatingly slow Internet connections.
