My path 

 Tunisia
Sidi Bou Said

I am currently living in Tunisia since November 2008

My occupation:

Model and Actress

What I like about this destination:

I get to practice French, everything is affordable, Tunisians are very welcoming and sweet, mint tea with pine nuts, fresh fish and fruits, fresh bread, camels, the view and the smell of Jazmin all over Sidi Bou Said, the pain au chocolat, the european tourists and the affordable painting courses, languages etc.

What I don't like about this destination:

They smoke everywhere, the weather is very cold in December and very hot in the summer. Ramadan affects me just because I feel bad drinking water in front of everyone.

 USA
New York

I lived in the USA from August 2006 to October 2008

My occupation:

Account Executive

What I liked about this destination:

The pace of the city. Living in New York is like living in a small world. You can find everything over there. It was very inspiring and challenging for my career experience.

What I didn't like about this destination:

The subways are not clean, there are a lot of homeless people and crazy people in the streets. Also, people are normally consumed by work and this can be quite stressful if you are trying to make friends. You tend to feel alone. But that was fine with me by that moment because at the time it was what I needed.
