Heading For the Horizon

Episode 5 is here! I quit my job at Royal English College and got crazy emails and threats from my ex-boss that can bee seen here: http://royalenglishcollegeturkey.webs.com/index.htm
Also, for Christmas I taught some Turkish people how to make ginger bread houses, and I learned to play “tavla”. Then spent New Years on a boat party in the Bosphorus, it was epic! also you can see some of my new students at my new job that I love. Cute Turkish kids rapping :)

Yes Episode 4 is here! Now you can see the nightlife in Turkey, my birthday party shenanigans, my spill on Turkish nationalism, AND my spill on actually teaching abroad!

This video has some random moments. I like to mix with the local children in my neighborhood so I bought them a new soccer ball. I will introduce you all to my coworkers. They are very cool. Then you can check out my “crib” in Tokapi. I would also recommend checking out a friend’s band! http://www.bytheby.de/musik German band
