One day, one elsewhere n° 8

Every day, you can find a relaxed morning to keep your mind open to the world by subscribing to the blog. All you have to do is click on the blue banner at the bottom of the article!

Go out to beat the cobblestones of the unusual streets of the Medina and let yourself be guided by the charm of the old town gates. Nowadays, to discover the most mysterious door of the beautiful Mogador or to observe the traces of the past on the door unearthed at the bend of a passage.

Enjoy a door that blends in with its surroundings until it almost goes unnoticed.

Smile as you cross doors that seem to measure up to each other. You’re the big one and I’m the little one…

Be surprised to see a screen door locking another door right behind it. Perhaps it is a summer door and a winter door?

Entertain yourself with doors leaning a little to the right…

or a little to the left …

Nestling for a few moments in the shelter of a rich doorway to enjoy the shade and appreciate the work of another century.

Go a little further into the Medina and discover that even the doors most damaged by time, have taken care to make themselves beautiful, with a layer of Essaouira blue.

Basting on the elaborate threshold of a nail door. Thinking that these doors are the passage between the outside and the inside, between the intimate and the public, between the self and the non-self.

Dare to glance through a half-open door and feel the freshness inside.

Make a joke by discovering a half-open door on a closed door. To look discreetly through the door, no one, total silence.

Move forward a little more and suddenly change from shadow to light, and by the greatest of chances, you come out onto the Skala. Crossing the Skala door and entering another universe. A suddenly sunny world.

Feel the caresses of the sun on your face and savour the moment. Letting yourself go in front of the show that this place provides is full of magic and memories.

To hear as a rumble which is not that of the cannons. It is that of the sea. The sea which is omnipresent all around the Mogador and which opens a door to the infinite.
