Culture and Travel impressions from Tunisia

in #travel7 years ago (edited)

Tunisia museum and landscape

It is time to plan the next vacation to a place of sun, hot weather and culture. To get prepared here some impressions from Djerba last year. I even managed to visit a museum to learn about culture on the island. The museum was quite empty but with a lot of things to learn. Name of it was musee du patrimoine - full of wonderful history and culture.

Two weeks I do not want to miss anymore. Wifey plans a trip to Turkey for March, Bulgaria in April but all not hot enough. In Djerba we also enjoyed a trip to visit old traditional Berber settlements to see how these people lived in the past.

The Berbers come originally from North Africa and there are lot communities across the region including Tunisia, Algeria, Morocco, Libya and Egypt to name a few. The Berbers name themselves Imazighen and speak various dialects / languages related to Ancient Egyptian. Nowadays the majority of Berbers live in Morocco and Algeria as well as large immigrant communities in Europe and Canada. The Berbers live a strong identity across different languages and heritage which covers their joined history in North Africa which is what they mainly unite in terms of collective identification.

Haha, do you wanna get burned? :-)
Sehr schöne Bilder! War noch nie in Tunesien. Jetzt zieht es mich erstmal mehr in die Kälte zum Skifahren.

Wenn ich nur Skifahren dürfte :-). Burned is sometimes nice when you have enough Aloe Vera with you.

Haha, lassen die Damen Dich nicht? :-)
Uff, gegen Hautkrebs hilft aber auch Aloe nicht. Immer schön einschmieren!

Nööö - meine dank Fussball dreifach durchgerissenen Kreuzbändern u.a. lassen das seit Jahren nicht mehr zu

I'm proud to see someone write about arabic country , please next time write about moroccan culture by the way i'm from morocco

Glad to hear that - Morocco maybe but first I have to visit the country

if you want hot weather, culture and sun then Greece if you haven't already visit is the perfect choice. You can even combine it with Turkey that i saw you mentioned in March and visit Greece during late march or early April. ( First week of April is Easter's Holly week) so in terms of culture it would be the best trip. From Muslims and a whole history of ottoman empire to Christians and Greek empire!

good idea - been to Greece often but always worth a trip

such exotic places to visit ... I do love the desert except it can get quite hot in the summer...right now it is so cold here...desert sounds good.
Beautiful photos ..great to see this type of post

Thanks Rebecca - for me Hawaii or Cuba would be more exotic - depends where your base is :-)

Schöner Beitrag.

In Tunesien war ich bisher einmal in jungen Kinderjahren.
Die Videos sagen mir es war sehr schön dort :)

Dann pack doch die Videos doch mal auf DTube :-)

Sehr schöne Bilder, die Wohnungs Einrichtung gefällt mir besonders gut. Das essen war bestimmt gut da unten in der Wüste oder 😰

Alles war gut :-)

Gefällt mir sehr gut, Uwe. Wie lange hast du es dort ausgehalten?

Zwei Wochen - normal halte ich es nur eine Woche irgendwo aus - das war ne positive Ausnahme :-)

enjoy!

Everyone looks for a cool and chilled place to spend their vacations !!

How come someone wanna be at a hot place 🤔

Everyone? Well if you are from Europe / North you want hot places as you live in the cold places without sun since months.

Ooohh !! I get it now!! The people from my place are crazy about cool places, but not me !! So It became a mindset of me that everyone wants to go in cold places only !!

Vacation = cold places !! It’s obvious here! Hehe ! Should have thought from ur perspective!! Thanks

Tunesien - da war ich 2x, vor vielen Jahren. Und zwar in Hammamed (wenn es so geschrieben wird)
Dort waren wir im Hotel "El Fel" - es war herrlich ! All inclusive, 3,5 Sterne, tolles Essen, Super-Strand !

Erschreckend fand ich, wie viele Touristen sich verhalten haben....einige nahmen sich mittags ein ganzes Baguette - um nur 2-3 Stückchen zu essen...der Rest kam in den Müll !! Und soetwas in einem doch so armen Land....

Schon bei der Hinfahrt wurde mir klar, wie gut es uns gerade hier in Deutschland geht. Das sollten wir uns mal öfter bewusst machen.

Viele Grüße

Michael

Das stimmt, Touristen sind meist Dreckschleudern und es geht uns auf jeden Fall gut, man muss nur reisen um es zu erkennen.

Good post! (As usual)
