I was exploring the enchanting blue city of Chefchaouen, Morocco, when, by fortuitous circumstance or fate, I met two remarkable individuals, Dionne Haroutunian and Mike Cooks.
Dionne, a gifted artist and enthusiastic motorcyclist from Seattle, Washington, is on a mission to foster world peace through personal connections. Her unique approach involves traveling the world on her motorcycle, forming lasting bonds with people from diverse cultures, and creating a "human blanket" of friendship that transcends borders. Accompanying Dionne is Mike, an intrepid adventurer, photographer, and fellow motorcyclist who is documenting her inspiring journey.
We spent countless hours discussing our individual missions, sharing personal stories of triumphs and challenges, laughter and tears, and an unforgettable adventure that took us to a remote Berber village (stay tuned for more on that).
To underestimate Dionne with her pink hair and vibrant spirit would be foolish. Her unwavering commitment to making the world a better place, one friendship at a time is truly commendable.
