Morocco...........Ladies traveling alone beware of Moroccan men who come up to you and say things like, "I've seen you in my dreams and have been waiting for you." or "I spoke to you last night, do you remember me?"  From there on they will do their best to charm you with the intention of sleeping with you and eventually getting you to donate to some "good cause" (the girls in the extended family who cannot go on to study because there isn't enough money or for clothes or medical treatment, etc).  Granted, the families usually have much less than we do but to charm you with the intent is definitely not OK. 

A great little riad in Marrakech is the Riad al Faras.  You can find it on Hostelworld.com although it really is very nice for a hostel.
