Bees buzz between the blue and white painted hives.
There are light purple flowers growing in between the olive trees, rocks and brown grass. The sun burns.
“Don’t go any nearer, otherwise you’ll disturb the bees’ movement, and they may sting you,” beekeeper Khairi Kharroubi warns.
We are in the middle of the countryside in the Siliana province of Tunisia, a two-hour drive south west of capital Tunis.
Khairi, 24, and two other beekeepers are proudly showing some visitors their hives.
The three men are the first participants in a new social enterprise project called TuniBee, which is run by students at the Mediterranean School of Business (MSB) in Tunis.
