      I'll tell you a story. A true story that happened to me. On November 20th, I took the El Bachiri bus from Essaouira to Marrakech. Departure from Essaouira at 2:30 in the afternoon. Upon arrival in Marrakech, I realized that I had lost my wallet with all my documents and money in it on the bus. I rushed back to the station, but my bus had already left. Luckily, I found a conductor at the station who had been present on my trip from Essaouira. I explained the situation to him and he immediately called the driver of my "unfortunate" bus. The conductor directed me to another bus that left a little later on the same route. After a short ride on another bus and accompanied by the same conductor, we stopped at a gas station. The conductor called me from the bus and handed me my wallet with all my documents and money. I don't know how to thank them enough. To the conductor who organized everything! To the driver who found the wallet and left it untouched at the gas station! To the company that
