I'll be going to Sousse from 5-12/Feb with two other gay friends; one of them has been there many times. I was told that the trick is to smile back at the boys that smile at you, if you like them. If you don't like whoever smiles at you just keep going and don't turn your head.

The Palace Café and the Clarageis are gay friendly places, although I've been told that any café is.

In muslim countries DISCRECTION is the name of the game.If you can speak French ask your "new friend" where to go. He may know some "short time" hostels.

Remember that in Tunis, although a tolerant country, homosexual activity is illegal and punished with up to 3 years in prison.

Don't forget to bring condoms and KY.
