As a child, I visited many parts of Tunisia. The country is fasinating. Especially for a man from Britian as the holidays are avialable for virtually nothing, the travelling takes no time and when you get off the plane you are hit with a very foreign country. Last year I decided to travel to Sousse with some of my friends, to relive my childhood experiences. I have never had such a bad holiday. Sousse stinks. The place is a commercial wastland. Ugly grey tower blocks have smothered the once pretty ancient town of sousse. The locals are so sick of the commercialisation of there town, that they hate and rip off any tourist that can get. Pushy.. You have never experienced anything like it. If shopkeepers behaved like them in the Western world, they would be arrested for assult. The constent pushing and pulling from one shop to the next, the pick pockets and cold weather wore my down to a nervous wreck. In the end, I stayed in my hotel and took ANY excersion away from Sousse. When I got back the the UK, I needed another holiday. Don't bother going.. For a great holiday try Rhodes, Greece.
I used to work in Tunisia, in Sousse and I can understand what Kitt's talking about. I got to like it but I think that was to do with the fact that locals got to know me and didn't hassle me as much to buy things. I did get tired of the constant sexual harrassment that foreign women have to put up with as the local men seem to think that every European women is up for it. The best thing about Sousse, in my opinion, is the food which I really loved.
