New Website about Expat Life in Turkey

Post new topic

Jakedolson

Hi Everyone, I wanted to introduce myself and my blog.  My name is Jake Olson, I live down in Adana Turkey and have lived here for about 7 years.  I've recently restarted a blog called A Foreign Perspective.

My vision for the site is to be a center of information for people visiting or living in Adana from abroad.  A lot of the focus is on food.  I have a series where I cook an American recipe each week with ingredients purchased in Turkey, called "Made in Adana" and a series called "52 Things to Do in Adana"(posted on Wednesdays) where I'll suggest something to do or experience in Adana every week for a year (posted on Fridays).  I've also got an "Adana Food Guide" in development.

These are all quite new, but I'd like to invite you all over to visit the blog, and let me know what you think.  I'd appreciate any feedback or coaching from experienced bloggers. 

I hope everyone here is making the most of their lives in Turkey!

Looks great! Looks like we need to make a trip out to Adana sometime. I do love the Adana kebaps I've eaten here in Istanbul.
