And the adventure continues...

It has been so long since my last time here, but now I hope to come here frequently. I have been really busy but the truth is, there is no excuse to not to come here to write my experiences for you.

I think I'm lazier than in the past...my bad. Well, since my last time I have been in many quite interesting places, like Çesme, a very well known place in Izmir. Çesme has the most beautiful beaches I have ever seen with wonderful people around there. Denizli is other place that I have visited but without time to explore. It was just for work.

One thing I can tell for all of you is that, if you are going to Turkey, your driving skills will improve for sure...these guys are completely crazy when they are driving and they don't care at all about driving rules...it is dangerous of course but at the same time funny.

Last week I have had my first car accident. Nothing happen, just a scratch, but I was stopped and a Fiat Tofas went literally against me...the guy did not see me at all...LOL. My turkish is better but nothing in special...my fault. I have met a lot of people too, and some of them very special...

I am very happy about that because I have never been the kind of person that evaluates the other one by their name, color, race or religion view, which means that like in Portugal, there are good and bad people. At this very moment I feel more turkish than portuguese. I drink lots of tea and the food here is wonderful. I don't miss pig from Portugal but sometimes I want to eat... :p.

Other thing I can tell you is that Izmir is completely different than the other cities in Turkey I have ever been. It seems like an European city, with everyone hanging out and trying to relax. Really wonderful.


Ok, I have to go now, in order to make my dinner, but I leave with this song that is a kind of "Ágata" from Portugal. This is the turkish "Ágata"
