    About this ebook

    "Sometimes hilarious, sometimes horrifying, but always entertaining."
    - Teresa L Holland (Amazon)

    "I'm a great fan of Bill Bryson's books, and Matthew Felix captured some of that charm and wit in his book...Matthew, however, added a bit of suspense that kept me awake reading into the night."
    - Amazon reviewer

    When Matthew had to renew his European visa, his point of exit was obvious: he was going to Morocco. Memories of his previous trip filled him with anxiety. What was he thinking? After everything that had happened, did he really want to go back? Scams. Altercations. Mishaps. But also humor and beauty. His curiosity overcoming his fears, his second trip would prove as unforgettable as the first.

    A best-selling collection of travel writing as entertaining for the armchair traveler as indispensable for anyone interested in adventure in North Africa.

Adventure, humor, and spirituality infuse his work, which often draws on his time in Spain, France, and Turkey, as well as travels in over fifty countries.

Matthew's travel-story collection, "With Open Arms," recounts his humorous and harrowing experiences in Morocco. The collection has topped the Amazon Africa category, as well as the Morocco one three times. Matthew's latest collection, "Porcelain Travels," recounts humor, horror, and revelation in, on, and around toilets, tubs, and showers encountered on his travels. Matthew's video podcast, "Matthew Félix On Air," features guests discussing writing, travel, and whatever else piques Matthew's interest, from spirituality to cultural happenings to any good story worth exploring. Matthew has also produced three podcasts based on his books. When not working on writing projects or on the road, Matthew is likely to be found exploring the streets of San Francisco or hiking the trails of Northern California. matthewfelix.com
