Airy, or Tayri as many people in the region know her, is a tarumyt (a foreign woman) who became part of the family and co-founded Viajando Marruecos during its second launch. Originally from Spain and connected to Morocco for nine years, she found much more than a destination in the south-east: a home, a place to learn from and a land with which she has quietly built lasting ties.
A researcher specialising in Amazigh Studies and a doctoral candidate in Political Science, she combines her academic background and experience directing educational and cultural projects with a deep involvement in the region. Her research, developed in close contact with Amazigh communities, has allowed her to explore the history, identities, social dynamics and transformations shaping contemporary Morocco.
As co-founder of Viajando Marruecos, she brings a perspective that connects academic knowledge with the Anaam family’s local experience. She contributes to the project’s strategy and to designing journeys that go beyond conventional itineraries, bringing a critical, conscious perspective on tourism, its impacts and the relationships between travellers and host communities.
For Airy, travelling means more than discovering places. It also means understanding the stories they hold, questioning how we see them and building encounters based on knowledge, respect and cultural exchange.
