hello again :)
it has been over a year now and my wishes still have not changed im hoping they have just became closer, I have almost finished my tourism qualification here and I am ready to move forward. Tunisia is where I would like to be! I will be going for three months to look for a job as nothing seems to be coming up online, if I manage to find a job (fingers crossed) I will apply for my visa, does anyone know how long these will take to come through? I know finding work will be difficult out there but nothing good comes easy! any advise on where to look for work please :)
I could really do with some more advice
thankyou x

Hi,
I lived in Tunisia since Feb 2011 until last year, I left because even though I had permanent residence for being married to a citizen, THEY DON'T GIVE JOBS to foreigners unless they don't find anyone to fill up the position. Try better with Berlitz from your country and maybe asking for a transfer to teach English in Tunisia, but...I can tell you with confidence, the law of Tunisia protects its citizens when giving away jobs to foreign people. Good luck!

Here is the law: http://www.jurisitetunisie.com/tunisie/ … Ct1200.htm
