Content(quality)
You will be reading a little bit different content this time from me than usually. I am quite done writing just what we are doing day by day and what is our activities. But I can not ignore recapping stuff we have done so our week in a nutshell is helping the elderly, tidying and digging our home garden, making grape juice, continuing making seed library and improving Shipka centre park by adding more white stones to the spiral and planting some plants too.
But this time I will point out some fun facts about ourselves and our habits and/or personalities and some cool tracks that we have played from xXx (thats how I named my speaker) and more.
Fun facts about our people + music that they enjoyed :
Hekim
He uses VPN on Turkish websites to watch series so he doesn't pay for Netflix, can speak chinese, and he likes to eat mix of walnuts, yogurt and honey.Changes his Facebook profile picture after every 2 weeks. He is really good at picking walnuts and apples from our garden. Usually wakes up 10 minutes before we have to leave the house. Tortures Cynthia daily. Misses Istanbul and general city life.

Fanny
She is probably the most "french" person I have ever met. Super organized, positive and with good observation. But she forgets to turn on/off car lights, even in the dark lol. Asks "how are you?" and is ready to hear you how you really feel. Really open and good person to talk to. Instead of asking me the name of the song that I am playing, she uses Shazam to do it silently and then plays the same song later on her own.

Ru
When items disappear in our house, I ask her. Sometimes you leave the room and also leave your glass on the table just to return soon and continue drinking, but while you are not in the room, a far away sound reaches your ear and you hear "wait a moment". That is Ru, taking your glass and hiding it somewhere.
She likes to talk about lot of things, for example Tarot cards, zodiac signs, elements, nature and energies that influence people.
They also say that some people are just hyperactive, emotional beings, but thats okay.
Rux
Artist, designer and our main driver. Her craft is amazing, but she spends too much time in the living room with fire in the stove and thats why she is cold everywhere else. She crocheted a crown for the cat and designed a tattoo for me, so cool. Lately she has told us that she wants to do some kickboxing. I really can't imagine her punching someone but if thats what she wants then okay.
Sleeps in the living room
"Move or die"
She loves to pick seeds, even though seed library is full already

10 tips for someone who will apply for a long term ESC project / things that I wish I knew before coming here:
1) Bring a speaker, you will miss music otherwise.
2) Be ready to get seriously homesick
3) You will probably go trough a cultural shock
4) Be ready to spend a night in an airport
5) Be ready to be flexible in every way
6) Bring something that reminds you home
7) Be ready to start doing things without any expectations to get something back
8) Be ready to get so occupied with some work that you don't notice days and weeks passing
9) Even though you can travel with ID card in most EU countries, bring your passport (up to date) as well
10) Prepare to change and to obtain some new perspective for life
