Brief Update

Something of far greater detail will be coming a bit later, but I wanted to check in and let you all know where I've been during the last few weeks. I have been away from Istanbul since the 6th, doing a bit of traveling before I leave these blessed lands for my native soil. I first spent a day in Berlin (more of an evening really), before hoping a bus to the lovely German town of Bremen, where I've been staying with a friend of mine who I met last year while he was in Winnipeg, Gustav. This last weekend I made the relatively short trek out to Amsterdam, where I spent a solid four days with another friend of mine, Zach Dueck. Right now I'm in Bremen, sipping a hot tottie and listening to CBC radio 3. Tomorrow me and Gustav head out to Berlin, where I'll stay until next Tuesday, when I'll make for Istanbul once more. I have had an amazing time during these few weeks, and I hope for that to last to the end of my travels. I plan to write up what I've been doing in greater detail when back in Istanbul, but for now I did not want to leave you all without an update for too long.
