Volleyball Is kelibian

Volleyball in kelibia has a deep rich history of success and glory. A great Passion for volleyball runs in the blood of every resident in the region. Volleyball and beach volleyball are two typical games in Kelibia. Both men and women have very glorious and strong teams known all over the country. Kelibian volleyball players have always accomplished marvelous victory locally and internationally. The reason why I choose to write a few notes about this game is related to a couple of motives.

First, I believe that it is time to introduce Kelibia to the world not only as a tourist destination good to visit in summer time, but also as a symbolic city of volleyball, in which the quality of the game is highly professional.

Second, I thought since Brazil is identified with soccer, why we don’t give Kelibia the credit it has always deserved and identify this city with volleyball. Without exaggeration, although it is a small town in a small country, it is still a big place in the arts of volleybals.

The pastry that maintains love: Kaak Kelibia

It is a very special cake and very specific to the region of Kelibia. White flour made in round shapes, stuffed with dates, baked in a small traditional clay-made bakery called “taboona”. It is not only about the taste, but also its social and ethical role makes it a very special pastry.

Each year,during the Ramadan- Muslim fasting month- baking “kaak” for the Eid ceremony brings families closer and closer all over the territory of Kelibia. An ambience of love, solidarity, and love disseminate between the inhabitants. Every new day in the month, a number of relatives, friends, or neighbors meet together in the house of one family to help with preparing the”kaak”.

A close observer at the “kaak” preparation will notice a neat and very well systemized work. Elderly women take care of preparing the mixture and roll the dough into round shapes, serve food and drinks to the guests, or bake the pastry. Young ladies, however, usually like to do the ornamental job. Each time there is one “kaak” fully rounded, it goes to one of those ladies to be adorned and engraved with all kinds of beautiful artistic lines, contours, and figures.

Once the “kaak” is ready, each family has to send to relatives and friends to taste. It is always impressive to see people enjoying the “kaak” tasting and caring about helping each other bake one of the most delicious traditional pastries in the whole nation of Tunisia.

It is hot betwen the city and the country: We have to mention this too

(everything is gorgeous in Kelibia, but we have to say this...)


Unfortunately, it has been a truth since the first appearance of cities. Townsmen have always looked at countrymen debasingly. There is a biased view that country people are less educated, uncivilized, uncultured, and poor.

Indubitably, these are just other forms of stereotypes that city dwellers carry about people from the country. I would also consider it a form of egoism and ostentation. Townsmen like to show off as best educated and developed when compared or dealt with countrymen. The reality, however, has a totally different facet.

Incongruously, a lot of those who hold high social or political positions in the country grow up in the countryside. When I take the example of Kelibia, I can see that most of the intellect elite belong to agricultural families. The reason I cite Kelibia as an example, is related to the apparent segregation between people who live in the urban area and those of the rural side. Though there are no clear or justifiable reasons, it is hard to deny the existence of undeclared hatred and envy between the community of the city and that of the country.

Hopefully,the day will come when this scene of tension between both sides would disappear. Personally, I have managed to integrate in both societies perfectly. The tips are easy and attainable: make sure to look modern for those in the city because you are so; and make sure to be modest for those in the country because you are so.
