Greetings Expats,
The 31st crafts exhibition will be held in Le Kram from 25 April to 4 May this year. At the event it is reported that 580 exhibitors will show their best stuff from a vast range of crafts, interior decorating, clothing, and much more. Over 130,000 visitors are expected to attend and the National Handicrafts Office (ONA) has high hopes for the event.
Situational Awareness
Each year many expats attend this event and usually walk away with great gifts and a pleasurable experience. On the flip side, these events are a good time to review practical personal security tips.
3-Effective Tips to Stay Aware
1. Setup: Avoid parking near isolated areas and familiarize yourself with your surroundings.
2. Focus: It’s OK to explore but have a sense of purpose.
3. Empower: Remember most crimes in Tunisia are “Crimes of Opportunity“…don’t present the opportunity. Walking while talking on your cell phone=opportunity, Leaving your hand bag unattended=opportunity, taking out large amounts of cash to pay for something=opportunity.
