About the country

Location of the place

Not small city (~600.000 people). Hot and dry place. Somewhere dirty, a little bit chaotic.

City

The capital of Tunisia - Tunis city. I visited area of central bazaar, the Bardo Museum, Carthago antic city, neighborhoods in the city center, all area around the city center and of course my neighborhood)

Surroundings (possible trips, ...)

Every weekend we had one day trip by bus outside Tunis city to some other places
We were in Kerkouane antic city, on a beach in Kelibia and had diving in Tabarka

Employer

Employer

Serah company. It has a little office in the city center. I think they have around 12 employees, small one. I had a classic work schedule: from 8 to 14 every work day.

Work description

I had around 1 drawing in AutoCAD for 3 days so I did it without problems. They were small and simple. Generally I rectified and finished old drawings. Usually it was some civil and water constructions.

Salary (sufficient for local conditions?)

I got for month 500TD and for this month I spent a little bit more, maybe around 600 (100 for dorm, 150 for restaurants, 350 for groceries)

Language requirements

All office workers, locals in touristic places and young generation can speak English well, but all others (by me it's ~80% of population) CAN'T.

Accommodation (price, who provided it)

It costs ~100TD (1000CZK) for a month. IAESTE organization provided it for us. It was relatively good for Tunisia (by me it's a little bit worse than Strahov dorm)

Social life

Meeting IAESTE members (pick-up at the airport, organized events...)

Almost everyday evening guys from IAESTE did for us some events. Every weekend we had one day trip by bus outside Tunis city to some other places

Meeting other foreign students

There were around 30-40 foreign students from Europe's country (Spain, Poland, Slovakia, Germany, Romania) and outside (Turkey, Iran, India, Canada, Tanzania, Oman). We all lived in the same building and spent free time together every day (on dorm, in city or at events)

Sport and culture

Once we played football near the dorm. That's all :D

Food, local specialties

Almost everyday I ate some local street food. Usually It was really fat and for this really tasty for me :)
