<p>For the eighth episode of Why Morocco, I reached Lonely Planet&#8217;s Destination Editor for the Middle East &amp; North Africa Lauren Keith by telephone from my studio in Marrakech. Lauren&#8217;s a former colleague and sometimes editor (did I mention I freelance write and have bylines in Lonely Planet?).</p>
<p>For this episode, I was keen to catch up with Lauren as the famous publication has just named Meknes one of its top 10 cities to visit in 2019. Lauren’s just returned from a weekend break in Meknes and Fez, and she tells me she’s inspired to come back more often given it’s just a quick flight from London. Listen in as she tells us about Meknes, an often-overlooked city between Rabat and Fez, and just minutes from the famous Roman ruins Volubilis.</p>
