“A sandstorm is one of the most dangerous things that can happen to you” says Mustafa, as he wraps his scarf around his face to protect himself from the sand. “Sometimes they last for hours and you can easily get lost in it”.  Mustafa has to cross the desert each week on a motorbike on his way to the small desert town of Merzouga to look for work. A Berber by origin, Mustafa lives with his family who are pastoral nomads in the Sahara Desert in southeast Morocco, close to the Algerian Border. Their livelihood comes through moving with their herd from one place to another. However, in recent years, droughts and rainfall fluctuations have threatened their traditional lifestyle.
