ohhh...sweet turkey














I have been in Turkey now for almost two months. Everyday I find myself taking joy in the little sweet things; drinking endless cups of tea, communicating through eyes and some form of sign language( Yok Turce but I am trying), walking around the bazaar...tasting cheeses off the old cheese man's knife, smelling the simit baking(circular pretzels covered in sesame seeds), Hearing the (I'll admit at times annoying yet funny) kalabak su water truck constantly driving around, watching the little kids in thier bright blue uniforms with hand embroidered collars running around screaming...It is all in the little things.
