(p.s. I LOVE Couchsurfing.org for so many reasons!)
And did you know? Turkish people are so damn friendly that they've not only responded to me, but they've been talking to their friends for me about possible jobs.
I will find a way. I will get a job. I think I can. I think I can. I think I can.
And can you tell I've been antsy this week? I've written a post everyday to release some tension!

You definitely can! And I have to give you kudos for such an original job search method and utilizing local knowledge! Awesome!
ReplyDeleteYay for you! I'm excited to hear you're making friends and I'm sure it'll be no time at all before something pops up! I love Turkish people :)
ReplyDeleteI just worked in one place. I started off with one very part time job and one full time one, but then I ditched the part time one (they were a bit useless anyway). When I first arrived in Barcelona, I stayed with a family (found through the school where I did my CELTA) for six months, but after I got tired of constant Catalan arguments I found another place. It wasn't any better actually, but it was a change! I fought with my Catalan flatmate instead!
ReplyDeleteGood luck, my love! Just be careful, eh? You know how I feel about the dangers of t'internet... ;)

That's great that you've found a site that allows you to network & are making friends with it. That's awesome news. Woo!
ReplyDeleteSo is there like a Turkey version of indeed.com, because that site is awesome for job hunting. My mom, my dad, and myself all found our current jobs on that site.
ReplyDeleteohhh! i'm so excited for you! all the best with everything :)
ReplyDeleteI know you'll find a job in Turkey. It takes some persistence, but seeing how you're making a huge effort, I wouldn't be surprised if you found sthing shortly. How exciting you are going to be living in Turkey!!!
ReplyDeleteGo you! Couchsurfing is so amazing, right!? Sounds like you'll have lots of new contacts you didn't even know you had! I love how you are jut going after what you want! I hope you find something in a smaller city, too, but for sure now matter where you land will be your foot in and will be the right thing at the time! (always like that, right?) :) Wishing you all the best on your hunt!
