Happy Anniversary to Us



This is a view from our airplane into Morocco.

So I'm in the middle of writing a post about our first few days of class (spoiler, they're going really well). In the meantime, I couldn't let the day pass without recognizing the fact that J made the dumbest decision of her life exactly one month ago. I'm a nerd, and sometimes numbers really entertain me, so here's some numbers about our first month of wedlock:

In our first month of marriage, J and I have had seven hotel rooms and an apartment. We have slept in two towns in the States, Munich, Ankara (downtown), Ankara (Bilkent), Ankara-Istanbul (sleeper train), Istanbul, Madrid, and Rabat.

We have been in seven airports, one train (two attempted), four planes (five attempted), nine buses, and thirteen taxis. We have been to four continents and spoken (With other people) English, Turkish, Spanish, French, Arabic (Modern Standard), and Arabic (Moroccan Colloquial).

It has been a fantastic month, and I need a nap.
