Reporting to you from Turkey, where I have access to 24 hour internet while my dad attends this conference for the first two weeks of my stay here. God it's good to have internet access, it means I have something to entertain myself with - unfortunately I'm the only one under 35 here and though that usually isn't a problem the fact that everyone is here to work means that they have other things on their minds then entertaining me. The town I'm in is pretty, if touristy, it's a town on the eastern Mediterranean called Alanya and it has a beach and shopping aplenty - which at this point is all I really need, I just need to wind down and adjust to the fact that I'm not in  Kansas Mombasa anymore, after my mum arrives here next week I'm going to drag her off to see the places I'm desperate to see - like the Temple of Artemis and a hugely nerdish amount of museums. But until then I'm going to indulge and read too much fanficion, lay around on the beach and eat the best food in the whole world. I'm telling you after 9 weeks of no fresh food, of soups, rice, ugali, stews, bread and chips I'm so glad for the mountains of salads and veggies we get served here. 

The place I'm staying is pretty cool, it used to be a hotel but its been converted into a workshop and conference center for the WMO, it means that it has all the perks of a hotel and the perks of a conference centre - which means wireless internet! fast wireless internet. So I'm right now laying around in my room (a room of my own! pure luxury!) listening to bad 90's pop and eating Australian chocolate and trying to decide where to start in my fanfiction reading. 

I really wish there was someone here I could hang out with - okay I demand someone comes over and keeps me company! Right now! Yes that means you!

I'm seriously craving photoshop. And bed. And fanfiction. And my DVDs. And choclate. Maybe not in that order.
