A lot of people fall in love with an exotic place they are visiting and start dreaming up ways they could possibly move/live there. I, on the other hand, do the exact opposite: I start trying to figure out ways I can bring a piece of that place and culture home with me.

Case in point, this door in Ouarzazate. I scoured Morocco until I found a team of artisans that could carve me a door in a similar Tuareg/Berber style, and now I have this beautiful Moroccan door that will feature prominently in my home, leading into my office.

Will Seth have to duck his head a bit in order to pass through it? Almost definitely*. But… I mean… what is he doing in my office anyway? Get outta here, Seth! This is Ryan World.

Go to your own office with its boring un-keyhole-shaped entry and normal height clearance.

Keyhole means Me-hole!

*Seth, my partner, is one inch (1 in) taller than me in height, a fact which he reminds me of constantly.

******************************

If you think all of this door business sounds crazy, just humor me and go down THIS RABBIT HOLE with me for a bit; and tell me you don't come out the other side with more than a few doors picked out for your home that you simply can't live without! They're mesmerizing!
