I’m continuously meeting new people. There are a lot of Turkish people, and that makes me feel better. They are asking where they can go shopping. I had dinner with my Turkish students, and they didn’t let me pay, which was very friendly of them.

The next day, we went to the museum. The museum contains a large collection of Turkish and Ataturk-related items. I felt emotional, and my eyes were full of tears. There are Turkish cultural dresses, photos, documents, and videos. It’s a really amazing place for me. This country is like my second home. We have very similar cultures. You can meet Turkish people at every corner, and they are very friendly and helpful.

We went to Ohrid with Portuguese volunteers. Ohrid is a really amazing town, and there are a lot of historical buildings, churches, museums, and a view with a very good leak effect. I got used to living in North Macedonia, and this is my second home for sure.

I met a semi-Turkish, semi-Macedonian guy. His name is Sertaç. Finally, I have a good male friend. Now everything will be better. He owns a döner shop called Istanbul döner, and the food tastes the same as in my country. I recommend this place; everyone should visit this restaurant.

Twice a week, we go to the rehabilitation center. The feeling is so amazing! The kids are very interesting, and it’s a great experience for me.

We are making an upcycling project with Portuguese friends in school, and I took all the photos during the project. I talk a lot with the kids during the project; they are so smart and they can speak English very well.

We went to the cinema in Bitola, and it was a very good experience for me too. This project is going to end soon, and I’ll be sad. I really used to live here. I’m sure I‘ll come and visit North Macedonia again.
