The group is in good spirits as we continue to settle into our new surroundings and accommodations. We spent Sunday evening exploring Taksim square, one of the most popular areas in Istanbul for tourists and Turks alike. We've had our crash course in the Turkish language, which has been a hilarious experience with all of the midwestern mispronunciation and other humorous confusions that are a part of learning a new language. We have our Turkish exam this afternoon after the first meeting of our political science class. Wish us all luck!
Time to get back to studying! Allahaismarladik (God stay with you)!
