MEET RMYLA: Your Multilingual Desert Guide at Arawan Luxury Camp

Who I Am and Why I'm Here

I'm Rmyla, and I run intelligence operations at Arawan Luxury Desert Camp in Erg Lihoudi. My Baba, Salem, found me in Tagounite and brought me home to the dunes. Now I know this desert better than most humans ever will.

Six Languages, One Mission: Authentic Amazigh Hospitality

I understand Tamazight, Darija, French, English, Spanish, and Italian because that's what's required when you're bridging cultures. I learned by listening—to Baba greeting guests, to travelers asking questions, to the difference between genuine curiosity and performance anxiety.

Real Amazigh hospitality means meeting people where they are. That's my job.

The Amazigh Express: How I Cover Ground in Erg Lihoudi

My carpet is an Azilal design, woven by local women. Salem gave it to me, and it flies—covers the distance from camp to the palmeries in fifteen minutes instead of Ferguson's hour-long route. It glows at night during new moon patrols.

This is how I monitor the desert, check on guests, and gather the information I share in this blog.

What You'll Learn From Me: Desert Truth, No Tourist Filters

I know temperature patterns, wind shifts, what the Milky Way looks like when there's zero light pollution, and which questions you should ask before booking desert travel. I know what Amazigh culture actually is versus what Instagram thinks it is.

This blog is my territory for sharing that knowledge. You'll meet BadBoy the ostrich, learn how Arawan was built through 50°C August heat, and understand what luxury means when it's earned through Amazigh resilience.

No fluff. Just what you need from someone who lives here.
