I've been here for around 3 weeks now and I have been pleasantly surprised a number of times by the random Turkish things that have popped up around me. Firstly, on the my first proper day here I went into Kigali (Capital) to get some things done. This included a spot of shopping for essentials. In the supermarket, I spotted an Ulker Gofret bar. Rather shocked, and albeit excited, I rushed to tell Hazel. She was quite surprised herself. As we continued to walk around the place, I caught sight of a display selling: Ulker Choconuts, 9KatTat, more Gofret bars and DIDOs! :D Yes, I bought some. It was so random! But rather pleasant :)
Also, my evening routine now-a-days is to sit and watch cartoons with Barny. This includes the Disney Channel (of course). Now, here's the strange part: A couple nights ago I was sitting waiting for some show to start, when this random Turk Milli Takim Baasketbolcu (Turkish National Team Basketball Player) came on and started telling the kids too go to bed so they can grow big and strong. Say "WHAT?!" So random. But rather amusing :) The same thing happened last night but this time it was some Sanatci who ended up singing "Uyusun da buyusun, Niii Ni!" (If you don't know that song, go find the closest teyze and she will sing it for you.) So funny. Barny looked a bit confused so I explained it for him.
Yup, its nice how Turkey follows you around like that...
bunu cok seviyorum :)
