Each day is an exciting day in Tunisia you never know what you will meet or see. I woke up expecting an exciting day.
After I had my coffee I get a call from Wiem to go visit craft show. I dress up and start walking with a big smile. From nowhere someone stopped for me and offered to give me a ride. I expected that he will ask for money. but No, he said that he does it everyday in his way to work for free because it makes this day better.
With much amazement of this gentleman kindness, I enjoyed the ride so much and took some pictures. Then I asked him to stop because I only know one way to souk Jara. I thank him so much
for being sweet even he don't knows me.
I was waiting for bus but I had no luck. So, I start walking. On my way there I noticed that it's still early for people here to start working especially in private sectors. People start working usually at 9 am. Also, I find that the train station where I put my first step in Gabes the first time. It was amazing feeling that I start knowing where to go and how to get back.
I was not sure if I am close to my destination because Wiem start calling over and over again asking where I am exactly. I was forced to ask someone in the road. It's the last thing you can be afraid of is asking strangers in Gabes. Base on my experience everyone I meet so far is kind and willing to help you.
In craft show, I was amazed on how close the Tunisian and the Algerian culture are. it was so easy for me to talk with craftswomen about how they work or what materials they use. I even meet Algerian women who are married here.
At this moment, When I was looking around on all those amazing crafts they create. I decided that I need to do something about it. Maybe, I will create another way for them to present their work and open doors for them to sell in international market.
