MEET THE MAKERS
Laziza Naboulsi
Laziza is a Zaouia native and also married a Zaouia native as well. Unfortunately, several years ago her husband became ill with dementia and disappeared. Because of this, Laziza raised her only daughter independently. When her daughter married, her husband moved to Zaouia and they now all live together. Her daughter’s husband works in construction and supports the family through his wage. Laziza hopes that one day she will be able to generate enough money in the future so she can support herself and her daughter’s growing family. Laziza also hopes that one day, she’ll be able to travel back to her favorite Moroccan city of Meknes.
