Marrakech: and stylish riad for sale?

Marrakechnuevas_septiembre_2_cd_009 He was tall, very tall.  He was handsome.  Yes, very handsome.  He was a model for Hermes.  The blogging girl's friend said she felt weak in the knees, whenever she saw him.  The girl understood why.  Perfectly.

He wore black.  Naturally.  His house was almost all white.  Of course.  He was a stylist for Kenzo, for Vogue, for others.  The last Zara catalogue?  That was his work.  But he was so modest, that when she asked him about that, he just laughed, and said that his first job was selling towels on the beach in the South of France.  And then he poured her more wine.  How very, terribly, devastatingly charming. 

He lived in France and in Spain. And in Morocco?  Why not?  He bought a courtyard house, a riad, in the Marrakech medina.  Greedy, he bought a second one.  Feeling guilty (Catholic, she wondered?) he decided to sell it.  A riad which was perfectly modern, perfectly minimalist, perfectly edited.  He had styled it himself.

The blogging girl coveted the riad.  Something about sitting in the courtyard's open air.  As she could not have it (sadly, so sadly), she thought that perhaps ........perhaps..........you might like it.  The price is good, quite good.  Please promise that if you buy it, you will invite her over.  She will arrive bearing chocolates....
