I felt like a gratin and this body of mine told me the only gratin I could afford was zucchini gratin, mozzarella, olive oil and pesto.

Invisited Matmata when I was 17 years old. I don’t remember it was like that.
This is Matmata, in Southern Tunisia. And it’s not just "houses in holes"—it’s an entire invisible city. Each hole serves as the courtyard of a home. The Berbers have been building this way for hundreds of years: 1. They dig a pit 7–10 meters deep. This becomes the courtyard. 2. From the walls of this pit, they dig horizontally to create rooms—bedrooms, a kitchen, and storage areas. These rooms are connected by tunnels. From above, nothing is visible except for a hole in the desert. Why do they do it? It’s not just to escape the heat—though it works perfectly for that. Inside, the temperature stays between 20–25°C, while outside it can reach over 50°C in the summer and drop near zero in the winter. There’s no need for air conditioning. The primary reason, however, was protection. In the desert, you’re an easy target. This design renders the entire village invisible to invaders; if you don’t know where to look, you could walk right past it without ever noticing. And perhaps most interestingly, this is the home of Luke Skywalker. In 1976, George Lucas filmed *Star Wars* in one of these very dwellings in Matmata. The Hotel Sidi Driss remains preserved to this day, just as it appeared on Tatooine—you can even sleep in Luke’s room. Today, fewer than 100 families still live there. Most of the younger generation has moved to the new town built above ground, but the older residents remain below. They say it’s the best place to sleep in the entire Sahara.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
This is not a real image of the homes. This is an AI visualization, which has been manipulated. Look at the bottom of the photo, it even says it was produced using AI in light print. While the concept is cool, the real homes don't look like this.

UMUTIMA USOBETSE AMAGANYA NTUSOBANURA AMAGAMBO!
Ibikomere byo mu buto bisoba umutima, uyu mwana usibye ibifungurwa akeneye umuryango umwereka ko urukundo rw’umuryango rubaho ko kandi kwigira byubakira kuri byinshi bibanza kugira no kugirwa 😢. Ikindi kuganirizwa atihutishijwe muri urwo rukundo rushya rugurumana ashobora guhura narwo ubu nyuma yaha, birakenewe kumuha umwanya, umwana usaba uwamugaburira buriya ntaho aba aguhishe, aba aricyo kimutwaza kubaho no kwihangana kuko ibindi aba yaramaze kubyoroshya ariko igituma abaho atarira akomerera aho yicaye wenyine bugacya bukira ni ukubona icyo ahisha mu nda kandi atagomye, kubwira umukuru ubonye bwa mbere ni uko uba waraburiye mu bandi bakuru bagukikije cyangwa waramburiye ibiganza bakabivuma.
Ni ukumumenya n’amapfundo asobye amasubyo yubakiye ku buzima afite naho ahagaze kuriya avuga! Ni ukwitonda nta kumuhutaza mu izina ryo kumugirira neza; kuko hari abo duhabwa uku ngo badukemurire ibibazo; bagakemura ibyo bibazo bagendeye ku byifuzo byabo aho kumva uwo! Abandi bakaguhata urukundo utamenyereye n’ibigendana nabyo rukamuziba amatwi iyo ruje warakuze ukeneye ibikugira umugabo, kuko erega utawe agira amakenga rimwe akaba yariremyemo kwirinda kubera ubwoba ntaguhe umutima we ngo yerure akubwize ukuri kukahise cyangwa ku byifuzo byubu ukaba wakwibeshya umugenera iby’abana kandi yarakuze imburagihe, atakiri kuri ibyo byawe ubona akeneye, akaba yanakuyobya ukamufasha wibeshya ku byifuzo kubwo guhurwa abantu cyangwa gutegereza igihe ukaburira hose ntabe yumva hari uwamwumva.
Ubu kumwumva kugendane n’ibyifuzo bye biva aho yaburiye ibituma atakibasha kurema ijambo ukabiyoborana ineza no kumwubakira ku bizamutwaza urugendo nicyo ubu gikenewe rwose ntibibe bimwe bishashagirana bishira vuba.
H.E yarebye kure mu mutima aramwumva bamwe bagiseka asaba kumuha umwanya rwose akabaza uko abyumva, ni urugero rwo guheraho akaganirizwa akayoborwa aheza hamufungurira umutima umuganisha ahazima ari naho azubakiraho aheza hagizwe n’ibikorwa bimwubakira imbere.
💔 Kubura ababyeyi nabo kandi buje ubupfura birakanyagwa.

That boy is still a kid. But asks to work as he is used to only depend on himself.
That boy needs a family and needs to be loved. There is nothing to laugh about. He is traumatised. 😓😓😓😓
