I worked the morning shift, made a ****load of fresh orange juices for customers, a few banana smoothies and took a lot of drink orders. I told a boat-load of aussies (literally, they'd just finished a boat cruise) all about bus schedules and tours our hostel offers, and after work walked down the path past a group of 2000 year old ruins and to the beautiful beach 10 minutes away from me. Then I went back to our hostel, worked on my online TEFL course for a couple of hours, and now im killing time before the other girls finish their night shift so we can have our movie night.
I accidentally moved to turkey this summer. I'm currently living at a hostel at a beach resort on the southern mediterranean coast working behind the bar. In september I'll move to istanbul to teach english and save up money so i can travel the middle east next year. I meant to come home on the first of june. oops.
