Children of Chaouen

Chefchaouen, Northern Morocco
Canon 400D

My boyfriend Unai (who is a basque photojournalist) and I were working together there for a few days two months ago :) It’s a magical blue paradise hidden between mountains!!! Children accompanied us throughout an afternoon, they felt a lot of curiosity about digital photography (this is a small village and the only one photo store there is an analog one). Timidly at first and very naturally later, they asked us many things about it. They spoke fluent Arabic, French and Spanish and the love they showed us impacted us greatly :)
