Into the wild

Aid week was pretty cool, 2 days off in the middle of the week and what best way to finish such a cool week then to go into the wild with your friends.

So I went for a 2 days trip/volunteering in Kroumirie Mountains. First stop was Farm Gisele where we had a nice picnic and after enjoying the nature we helped to build back the wall that has been destroyed by the rains.

After a nice afternoon we continued to Beni Mtir where we spent the night. It is a very nice and quiet place, it kind of reminds me on Marčani (but Marčani without 20 crazy people), and if there was no cafe that was playing the Tunisian music so loud that you could hear it in Algeria, it would be a perfect getaway to chill out.

Next day we were supposed to enjoy warm sources but we woke up too late so we missed out on that, but at least we had a sleep in instead :) Later on we went to the Ain Draham to plant the trees in the forest that burned out in August. Forests and landscapes that I had the opportunity to see on the way were just breathtaking...

Last thing on the agenda before leaving back to Tunis was barbecue in a little cottage in the middle of nowhere, again, sounds kind of familiar... Of course, the bus couldn't get us to the cottage so we also had a nice little walk and even some rain wannabe couldn't ruin the moment :)
