I’m a Native American with a lovely Turkish wife. We currently live in Izmir, Turkey, which is a picturesque seaside town located just 45 minutes away from the Greek islands. This blog will contain the stories and images of my travel adventures abroad, while living and teaching ESL in Turkey. I invite you to join me on my grand adventure as I explore the hospitable culture, rich history, amazing landscapes, and spectacular coastal scenery that Turkey has to offer. I am also an aspiring amateur photographer and freelance writer. To see samples of my photography, please visit my [url=https:... full info

Good to hear from you Eric!
Thanks for the update Eric. Glad to hear that you are doing well and are so happy teaching at the university. As you said, that has to make you feel good to be accepted and treated so kindly by everyone there. We had another great Fair this year, with very seasonable temperatures (which always helps to boost the attendance). The Buckeyes won their opener over Navy yesterday. It wasn't always pretty but they got the job done with the new redshirt freshman QB (JT Barrett) who is replacing the injured senior Braxton Miller (out for the year with shoulder surgery). Until your next blogpost - take care. Brett

Thanks Brett
Cool. I'm glad to hear you had another great fair! Tanya said that you broke an attendance record this year - Awesome! Thanks for the Buckeyes update - I really MISS watching them! I read that Kirk Herbstreit doesn't have much faith in their chances this year after Miller's injury. That sucks! Anyway, Go Bucks! Thanks again and stay in touch!
