"It can, in fact, be really stressful." He claims that dogs may adapt and grow comfortable with close ones hugging them, but he advises caution when hugging a dog you don't know well or allowing strangers to embrace yours.

Tunisia has a metro station located just outside of the capital. Everyone speaks about the metro, but don't be misled; it's essentially a light rail system. It indicates it won't go underground save for a few small tunnels and appears like a tram. The first line opened in 1985, while the latter two lines, lines 4 and 6, opened in 2008-2009.

I urge that travelers use taxes. When it comes to public transportation, it is the cheapest, fastest, and most comfortable option.
