First impressions of HAMMAMET, Tunisia - A popular holiday destination in North Africa الحمامات تونس

Hello everyone! This is the third episode in my Tunisia series and the first of my Hammamet videos - effectively a "Part A" of my Hammamet videos. In other words - there will be more Hammamet content coming shortly so do watch out for those :)
In this video, I explore the popular Tunisian holiday destination of Hammamet. I arrived at my hotel in Hammamet earlier in the day after a short louage journey from Tunis, and after a brief rest, this was the first time I left the hotel again.
From the outset, I'm surprised at the level of activity and traffic - even though this is of course far less than what one will experience in Tunis, a far bigger city. In my previous video in this series, I explained why I requested a garden view rather than a city view at the hotel - the hustle and bustle of the city immediately justified that decision! I also note that Hammamet also has yellow taxis and trees with square cut leaves, just like Tunis. A key difference, however, is that some shops sell beach-related goods, which immediately tells a story of a seaside city.
After a short walk from the hotel down the main road, I arrive at the ocean and is impressed by the fort that overlooks it. I buy some pistachio-, caramel- and strawberry-coated nuts from a street vendor before walking down an ocean trail next to the fort.
After marvelling at the magnificent ocean setting, I walk towards the medina. I meet a gentleman that shows me a souvenir shop as well as an 800-year old house that is currently used as a "boat house" by fishermen. Afterwards I give him a "tip" and have some football chat (note: this video was shot a couple of days before the Tunsia versus France football match, hence my prediction and reference to that football match - see if i got the prediction correct!).
I say goodbye to the gentleman and walk further in / towards the medina. I stumble across stunning art, lots of feline friends and various references to fish in many forms. I also buy a fridge magnet from a shop and comment on the different vibe in Hammamet compared to Tunis, including the parts of the medina I explore here.

    Inside doors and within each person's property, people value cleanliness so much but unfortunately they don't give a shit once it becomes public property, that's why you would see lots of run-down looking spots in Tunis, most of which are public infrastructure, litter and bad sideroad pavements. Also municipalities have big financial issues and don't always clean much since everything piles up the next morning anyways.

    Unfortunately, Tunisia has been living since the year of the 2011 revolution, difficult political problems, sit-ins and demonstrations that created chaos and disrupted the economy and development... a comprehensive crisis that disrupted the workflow everywhere from which the country has not recovered to this day Tunisia is a beautiful country, its location is strategic, its people are kind, industrious, creative, intelligent and stubborn. It will recover soon Inchallah

    Hey Willie, if you're still in Tunisia and feeling adventurous you should visit Chennini in the south and stay there for a day or two. Its an old berber village which is now mostly left by its old inhabitants but it still has a little hotel and a couple of people living there. There you will find true tranquility and piece from the hustle and bustle of the city and a magnificient panorama. The south of tunisia is a completely different country compared to its north.
