Hi,
anyone interested is welcome to join the newly revived Isabelle Eberhardt tribe.

Isabelle Eberhardt, fluent in Arabic from an earlier stay in El Oued with her mother, travelled alone, a lot of the time in the disguise of a young male Arab, through Morocco and Algeria during the start of the 20th century, from around 1899, calling herself Si Mahmoud Essadi, and people believed her. She got married to an Algerian soldier on the way...and died in a flood at the age of 27. What is left of her are her writings...
