One consequence of being robbed on the train from Tunis to Sousse last month was a scaling back of my plans for housing. I’d hoped to get a nice new seaside apartment, or maybe something in the medina, but it was not to be. Instead, I opted for a small one-bedroom apartment in the basement of a new house that’s just a ten minute walk to AMIDEAST.
Maybe this will be for the best. The rent is certainly lower than the places I’d been looking at, and the easy walk to work will save me money on taxi and louage fares.
I moved in on Monday and started rearranging, cleaning, shopping, and personalizing my flat.
It’s essentially one medium-sized living/dining/cooking area, a nice bathroom, and a smallish bedroom.
It’s very much a work in progress. I hope to have it looking better eventually. But for now, I am just happy to have a home.
What no gun rack?
