someone once said to me, it doesnty matter what you’re blogging about, as long as you don’t write about knitting patterns. well I did similar stuff writing about sewing turkish flags - if i would have a search option i would link now, maybe someone can post me the code …
today I wan’t to write about an other classical boring issue - weather.
the last to month there was not much to say about. it was hot. too hot to do anything. even too hot do do nothing. the only thing you could do is laying in a pool and drinking cocktails. it was even to hot after rain, which apeared just two timw during the summer. it was too hot at 4 o’clock in the night. and it was hot in the wind. at noon it was too hot even to say `off, ne kadar sicak`, because you couldn’t be sure wether you will get enough air after wasting ist for speaking.
suddenly, today, its cold. not cool, cold. I closed my windows. I did something to feel warmer. that’s maybe not interesting for you, but its important. so i’m looking forward to the winter
thanks to k. for giving me her oven …

I wonna go to Trondheim, to visit jelena. its about 4006 km - İ don`t remember anymore, where İ got this figure, so let us say 4000 km. this distnace is exiting me. to travel 2100 to Germany is not a big issue, but double?
so At the moment İ estimate the alternativs. at the moment İ prefer this idea.
go to zonguldak and take the ferry to Odessa - it should be just 16 €, but İ couldn`r validate this information
from there go to kiev and then to tallin (a), by train, if its cheap enough. - or to gdansk (b), maybe the shorter option, cause i won`t get a belarussian visa so easily. then take a ferry to helsinki (a) or malmö (b). From there it should be easy to hitchhike.

so, İ have to resaerch following questions:

does the ferry between zonguldak and odessa really exist and how much is the ticket
how are the train fees in ukraine
how are the ferries between poland and skandinavia

so if anyone has any useful information, please comment.

Today I was reminded, that I wanted to write about the wave of antisemtist propaganda. There were posters evrywhere light blue, showing the white writing israel, with $ as s and a david star as an a. and the comment “a humiliating experience for humanity” - in turkish and english. if you want to know, who is doing this, look here.

Ok, that`s stone-age marxism. but what is this for example. beware of jewish movies … just to take the most clear example of this campaign.

İ don`t know, where to begin any discussion. İ don`t see any organized discussion against antisemitism. My only idea, is to ask all the “leftist”, how they feel to have exactly the same concept of the enemy as all these islamists.

İ wasn`t so much happy with my life in recent times. the rythm of working, sleeping, needing much orgnization to get enough social life and so on was a little bit depressive. so İ made some changes, first of all İ`m changing my job. though it means doing two jobs in one day sometimes at thge moment, İ really feel good aboıt that. - the most important: İ see something new. My life was more and more reduced to beyoğlu, now i go to kadiköy sometimes. this means, İ`m using much different means of transport:
to go from beyoğlu to taksim and back you can use any kind of vehicle. yesterday it was: bus - ferry - old tramway - walk - ferry - new tramway - new tünel.

istanbul didnt take a shower for weeks. it was stinking like hell, it wasn`t colling down any more even at night and it was dusty. İ started to take shower sometimes 2 times a day, even this was quite useless under this circumstances. no rain.
yesterday, about noon, there was rain. suddenly within 10 seconds it startet and in about half an hour maybe 5 l/squaremetre where falling. you culd see all the dirt being washed into kanalisation. people started to use the water to clean the ground, making sure it coming to the places where it didn`t go by itself because of roofs etc.
the athmosspere was like after a shower. fresh. just for some time, because it was getting hot soon. but anyway, it was like the first sweat after showering, not as much stinking, dirty and so on.

sorry to bore you with writing about weather, but İ couldn`t ignore.

here the pic of the saurian catched by kedi:

she catched a second one this night.

nevertheless İ will have to give away her for about two month, cause my flatmate is hypersensitiv to her. - Yes really sad. İf you are interested, contact me.
