3rd Day in Tunisia

Bird singing in windows is special feeling each morning. Bird allow me to took a close pictures like it's welcoming me with those special moments.


My journey today is about discovering from where to buy and how much grocery cost. I went this time with two boys. They were so nice to me and helped me alot. In carrefour, things are a bit expensive but fresh so you can't find something dirty or expired.

In carrefour, there is many stores. Grocery is the biggest one. I took a walk starting from bread where you will see many kinds of bread and in an nice ordering. Meat is so fresh that it calls you to come closer. and many many other products.

My special story with carrefour, I meet an phone service called orange was asking us if we have orange ship. I said no but other boys said yes. I didn't know if they have or not but I was trying to understand if there is a difference between orange and ooredoo " because I bought ooredoo", the girl answered no. I was surprised so I asked how it will cost me international call. She said, she doesn't know. I said then why I should change the service "boys didn't like how she is sticking". she said, I will win a phone and tablet. " I only have 2 months to stay here. To move on" I said, my luck and I know it, I'm not going to win. Probably it was not kind of me but it's a good argument to change my network service.


I get to know those boys more and more. They have many friends who welcomes me all and wish me a good stay in Tunisia. Also, there is another place called manzil. Where we have some rest in a coffee. Shisha in Tunisia is so popular and almost everyone smoke it. Because there are used to go that coffee shisha come just with sign of hand. Another friend of them come by and had shisha also.

We exchange many subjects about history of both countries. Throw our conversation I discover that Tunisian knows a lot about Algeria. In this day I made friends. After about 2 hours. I went back home and asked one of them to come spend the night with me. We did some grocery before we went back home.

We cooked together and continue talking about economy, politics and history of both countries. The main dish was so hot that you can't eat in normal condition but we were so hungry.

NEXT: 4th day in Tunisia

Traditional wedding in south of Tunisia

After one week here in Tunisia. I realized that at this time of the year weather you can see four seasons in one day. I get lost trying to wear something for the whole day. I look to weather app on my phone each morning try to customize on weather and for how long I will stay out. As I have one week here, I can say that I still don't know much about Gabes. I heard some names about places that I have to visit such as Chenini, Matemata, Gsour in mednine and many many more. With much excitement and motivation I was waiting for any opportunity to visit those places. It was weekend I had nothing to do. After a long walk in gabes with Omar.

Good friend

Days pass by and each day was more exciting than the previous day. In the middle of my journey, I was able to see all visit many places, meet many people students, business men, young and old. One morning I was walking as usual to work. Life had giving me such an amazing opportunity to meet a special people, a good person. I was a bit sick when I met him because I tried every food possible. He offered a ride. I initiate the talk by introducing myself. Then, my room mate and finally this amazing person introduce himself. The ride was not that long to talk about everything. I gave him my business card but didn't expect him to call me at all. After an hour, He added me to facebook and ask me when can we meet and continue our talk. As much as I was surprise as much as I was excited to meet him again. We agreed to meet in evening. I think I was talking too much and fast. But we understand each others from different angle, because of my little background on business I had such a pl...

Walking in Gabes

Walking is the best joyful moments you will have when you travel. I meet doctors, business mens, youth entrepreneur which I'm grateful for their kindness. Still in contact with them till today.  I'm the kind of person that remember roads, have graphical memory and I trust my Instincts to lead me as I'm walking. So, It's easy for me to tell what road to take to reach my destination, just by seeing a fragment of image or from name of street or even from taxi. Because taxi drivers always tried to take an easy way. Sometimes it's risky but HEY it's life.  I discover a lot of lovely places such as this beautiful work from AIESEC Global Volunteer.  I have been lost sometimes but I always continue my walk without worrying or afraid. I always expect the best from people without been stupid and putting myself in bad situations.   I really recommend walking because you will have no idea how much you will be amazed by the people, views, traditions and c...
