…ok, not that unknown actually… 🙂 Turkish culture is quite similar to Serbian, we share many customs and words, for Serbia was under Ottoman rule for more then 500 years…
But still, a year away from home… Heh, I joined AIESEC in 1999 and have convinced many outgoing trainees that they shouldn`t be afraid and… well… you all know the story… 🙂
And now I finally feel what they told me they felt before going abroad… 🙂
Quite a funny feeling… I know that everything will be just fine, that there are many trainees there already, that I will have a buddy in AIESEC Istanbul, that I have my personal friends there already… But yet, I feel that little waltzer in my stomach… I guess that`s positive…
Anyways, if someone wants to give me a tip or two about being abroad for a year or so, please do… The longest period I was away was a month and a half in Calgary, Canada, when I was a teamster in the CC of IC2002… This is kinda different, I suppose…
