spent most of the day chilling out in my crappy hotel room in Van (a city in eastern turkey). I caught something a few days ago and was really sick, but then antibiotics seemed to start working later this afternoon so now im up and about. well, im hanging out in an internet cafe until sunset when the restaurants open again and i can grab dinner.
also finalized plans to meet up with another canadian guy tomorrow to head off into iraq. we'll be spending 5 days travelling around the kurdish controlled area in northern iraq, which should be pretty damn incredible.
