Tunisia!

Here are my first images from my trip to Tunisia! I never thought I would go to Africa...and yet alone Tunisia! How many people even know where this country is? FYI: it is in northern Africa, in between Algeria and Libya; colonized by the French; and the majority are Muslim, however, they are very liberal people.

Me in Sidi Bou Said, notice how Tunisian flags are flying EVERYWHERE! Sidi Bou Said is a town that is considered to have very beautiful houses and views. The houses are all white and have blue doors and windows, and all with great vistas of the Mediterranean. Soooo, this means tourists! This town has become very touristy, even though it is basically just a neighborhood, so there are merchants selling junk all over the streets, and bus-loads of tourists.
