Recently retired and about to give Tunisia a "whirl". Halting French but adaptable. Seek to connect with those that may know the "turf". Trading in beaches of South Florida for the Mediterranean. All suggestions welcome.

Make sure to live around the banlieue Nord
La goulette-gammart
Closest thing to Miami beach ( lol )

Try to rent nothing more than an S1(. 1 bedroom apt) on the beach around 1000 TND which is around $350

U don't need to open a bank account
Use ur chase card for example the fee around 1%

With $2500 u will live like a king
Around 6000-7000 TND
Within 1 HR from Monaco
Try the movenpick @ sousse
The billionaire @ gammart
Dar el marsa in la marsa
Et
Dar Zarrook @ sidi bou said

Enjoy

Olivier🇺🇸, thank you very much for the guidance and advice. Exactly the kind of information I was seeking. Great! Though I have looked quite a bit online already can you recommend a good site/person re: Apartment/flat hunting?

Many many thanks again.

There is a craigslist type website called https://www.tayara.tn/fr/ that has personally posted properties for rent or to buy.
