Finally..

G'day mates..

Yes, I am a mong! :)(Like Pen pen says) I had this blog to write about Syd/Aussieland and it is almost 2 months but what did I write?

- Nothing!

I kept telling myself to update the blog but somehow 'I didnt have any time' as usual but I promise in the following days I will write about Sydney, my new home-UN House, my second home Canberra, my team mates, my tango and babysitting adventures and all the impressions for my new life.

There is too much to say but in a few words I can say 'I loved it here!'. I didnt have any cultural shocks etc and the biggest shock I had was after a week here, i already felt like home..
Aussies are cool; although they are known as one of the most individualist societies in the world, there are many similarities with the Turkish ppl as well, (They are fun!) and I guess this is why I felt like home already.

Sydney is an amazing city, it is so much alike Istanbul, alive 24/7. I prefer Istanbul during the day and Sydney at night though. Canberra became my second home here, I have been there twice already.. In fact nothing much to do down there without the people but luckily there are trainees and such fun members ;)

AIESECers in Australia are also great! They are so much fun and I believe they have a very strong AIESEC culture. I already told there, July Con was one of the best conferences I have ever been to. As I had troubles with English, they started learning Turkish. (Eyvallah - Massallah :) )
Mei-dog, Pen Pen, Bretto, Westy, Tilzzz, Ralphy and Suggy is the most hilarious group of people I've ever seen :) All of them deserves my medal. (Ralphy got it once already) Every day in the office is such a fun out here..

I have the best house in the world. UN House.. We, as the UN Security Council Members, are living happily living ever after there :) For more information visit UN House

I started babysitting, tango lessons and hopefully will start gym next week. (again) I met with Gokhan from high school, he is doing masters in UNSW and didn't see him in the last 5 years, but as far as I see he has been such a great fun since then ;)

I will write more and upload some pics I promise, otherwise I will be 'cenabet' in my whole life.

PS.: Ozge is coming here at the weekend, so I will have more pics to upload anyway.

Cheers you all..
