First steps [more cream - don't touch me]

It was my first day in Antalya... Actually I'm working in Kemer, it's around 50 km from Antalya! Well it's not that far away! :)

So about the flight! I'm totally dissapointed this time with Turkish Airlines stuff... It was better before! First of all after I asked the flight attendant couple of times to give me an extra cream I pointed to her hand... She suddenly turned into my and was screaming "DO NOT TOUCH ME" and throw a bunch of cream packages into me... :O I was shocked... Well it is my mistake as well I touched a married muslim woman, but in another hand she is working in the tourism field where they should understand other traditions and culture... Anyway I felt like a looser...
After we landed it Istanbul I just wanted to escape from the plane... It was raining in Istanbul... It was my second time in Istanbul and both times it was raining... Who said that England is the most rainy country?
The next flight from Istanbul to Antalya was also strange... And again it was because of the cream!!! The guy spoke so poor English that he even didn't understand what I want... :( :( And the final point was in the airport... there were 3 busses next to the plane... And can u imagine they were going to two different terminals! So probably as you already understood I took the wrong bus (me and plus 4 more foreigners: greek, ukrainian, russian and japanese). :D I still can't understand why I was suppose to take another bus... Anyways I took one extra hour to explane everything to go back to the airport territory and so on... Strange strange strange... I arrived in Kemer at around 1:50 AM...
Today in the morning at around 9:00 I went into the office... haha... And there I met only a cleaner... Well after half an hour I met some managers who helped me integrate. I'm happy about the people I met, especially the Latvian guide, she is so nice to me. I hope we gonna communicate quite well the whole time here...
At the moment I'm living alone in the room and I hope it gonna be like this all the time ;) I'll put photos of the room a bit later... :) For now that's it... I need to go to sleep, tomorrow I have my first group arriving from Lithuania :) İyi akşamlar!

With love,
Your Oscar

P.S. I cannot put YouTube videos here, because YouTube is blocked in Turkey. So if you can, please write in the comments what kind of simillar webpages can I use instead of wonderful YouTube...

2 hours before the flight

Hello people!!!

Only two hours left and I'll be between earth and clouds? Amazing feeling no? B ut to be honest I don't like that flying cans... Soon a friend of mine will pick up me and we will go to Kabuki for a fast sushi!!! I really hope that 1 hour is enough for the flight registration... :)

And one more thing... Today in the middle of the night I woke up and started to sing a SWEDISH song... It's still some kind of wonder for me... I heared that song only couple of times before... Who know what does it mean?!? The song - look below.

Again: I'm leaving, changing, reborning...

Monday night:
My luggage is half packed... It took a time to think what to take and what to leave... And you know what I recognized... I'm always taking the same things: the same jeans, shorts, T-shirts and shirts, sweaters... Well I baught some new things as well...

Tuesday morning:
So... Here we are... I decided not to use my parfume 212 Sexy Man by Caroline Herrera anymore, instead of this I'm starting again to use Echo by Davidoff... I baught their deo as well :) hehe... I think it is lighter for summer and I need to change some more things in my life... So new parfume...

Yesterday I had some nice internet conversations with my friends: Agne (who is a part of my familly), Gabriele (finally I did something good also for her), Vytautas (moral supporter) and Piret (who made me think more about the friends). Piretike, eesti tüdrük, I miss you a lot... I even had tears in my eyes yesterday...

Yesterday while packing I realised that I started to like Beyonce... I have never been keen on this singer, but couple of her songs raised in me such a strange feelings. I was feeling guilty [I couldn't meet all of my friends before going to Turkey], happy and crazy at the same time... Only one thing was spinning in my head: "I'm mental, people. I'm mental"...

I was thinking what am I leaving here in Lithuania. Friends? Familly? Beautiful green country or part of my identity?
After this few weeks I'm sooooo emotionaly exhausted, I don't know if this time going far to south is going to be that much fun as previous time going to Armenia. Am I ready to adopt the culture I love in general? I kinda feel more and more that I'm person from the north. Or maybe this situation shows me that I need to move, otherwise I'll become home-bird...

That's it... Today couple of exams left, I need to go to optics shop and notary... And then the magic bus is waiting for me to start my trip to Riga and from there with amazing Turkish Airlines [it doesn't count they had plane-crash in Amsterdam couple of weeks ago]...

And for all my friends... I think this video is the best way to say good-bye and to reflect what kind of emotions and mood I have. Kisses and Hugs! Kyss og klem :*

Video to share

You know... It's 2:30 AM in Lithuania... I kinda need to go to sleep already... But before this I wanted to share some video (at the same time also a song) with you! I don't know how and why but this Slovak song is already two weeks in my mind... What does it mean? Am I going to meet someone from Slovakia or what?.. Don't ask what are the lyrics about... I have no clue, but he sings really nice... So enjoy!

Introduction


Hello dear friends or at least people I know!

This is the day I decided to write a blog... Haha, I'm happy or at least I'm trying to think that I'm happy... Whatever... Acctually I didn't think to start to write it, but one friend of mine - Vytautas told me that it's a good way of forgetting the daily routine and problems. Maybe he is right, maybe not... But I got interested into expressing my minds in the written form.
So how I feel today?! Well it's two-edged question. Well maybe it has even more edges (tres, quatro, cinco, seis, siete [sorry, I'm just trying to see if I still can count in Spanish]). Today I spent a wonderful day in the forests in the region of Vilnius! After long time I had possibility to do BBQ. I was with two friends of mine Jolita a.k.a. Adele and Lora (she is just known as Lora and that's it) and one friend of my friend... Anyway after discovering a lot of beauties of the nature we found an ideal place [I could call it even a paradise] for BBQ and some card games... I'll always remember that "natural wild strawberry" taste of washing liquid and some extremely old nudists in another side of the river! Anyways guys! Thanks for the wonderful time...

As probably almost all of you know I'm moving to Turkey very soon (two days)... In one hand I'm very happy about new enviroment, new friends, new job etc. [etc.] But in another hand it's quite a challenge. I even don't know how to describe that feeling [nes jaunas, dar kvailas (lit. because I'm young, still stupid]...

And one more thing: I'm totaly lost in my private life... Here you can see two Oscars... One is totaly fallen in love and another practical one who tries to ignore every possible emotion connected with my last two-weeks-relationship. But from everything I see now I'm again kind of again starting to live my life without any private life... That's it for now... I hope it gonna be continued...

With Love and Passion [I like this two words].
Your Oscar
