My Families, volume 2

The next family I'm going to share is my Moroccan host family. I posted a few pictures of them here before, but I thought I'd put a few more:

My oldest sister, Wafaa, next to some American students, next to my host mother, next to another student, next to me and my second-to-youngest sister, Meryem.


My second-to-oldest sister, Samira, with her son Mohammed-Khalil


My brother Abdellah, about my age, having fun with the teapot


Dancing with my two younger sisters and the bon (live-in housemaid), Sofia. It was like a girls night in, since dancing in public mostly happens at weddings. Looks like Khadija stepped on Meryem's foot when the picture was taken.


My brother Tarik, the oldest of all the children.


Although Himi was not in my host family, I considered him part of my Moroccan family since I stayed at his house for practically two weeks. I snapped this picutre while he was sleeping.
