Indiana James and the Slippery Hamam. Misadventures from the Orient. Tuesday, January 26, 2010. Well this is the beginning. And by that I mean I was bored enough to finally create my blog. Except I don't leave for the orient until February 7th, which means I don't really have anything to say. Well, when something exciting does. Edward Said is rolling over in his grave.

Indiana James and the Slippery Hamam. Misadventures from the Orient. Monday, November 21, 2011. Sorry for the alarmist message posted before the weekend- we have indeed staved off homelessness and managed to escape the confines of the Erasmus Sarayi to boot! 160; What a weekend. Catholic Church, Antakya. Wednesday, November 16, 2011. Just a little housing crisis. Gate to campus on a sunny fall day- goodbye Erasmus Sarayi (insh'Allah). Monday, November 14, 2011. Bellapais Monastary, Girne, Cyprus. This is...

Indiana James and the Slippery Hamam. Misadventures from the Orient. Monday, November 14, 2011. Bellapais Monastary, Girne, Cyprus. Adnan, EB, and I flew into Kuzey Kibris, or the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus on Sunday night (the actual holi day. Girne Harbor, Cyprus. On a tip from some German girls at the hostel, we rented a car for the last three days on the island, and it was a great decision! St Hillarion Castle, Cyrpus. Beautiful Girne harbor, and the Girne Kale. Fanatstic ruins at Salamis.

Indiana James and the Slippery Hamam: Re: Life (FF)
http://slipperyhamam.blogspot.com/2011/12/re-life-ff.html
Indiana James and the Slippery Hamam. Misadventures from the Orient. Tuesday, December 6, 2011. Don't get too upset. Because nothing is really happening. So now I will write about that nothing, in bullet-point form, because I'm that lazy. Here are some things that happened since our move a few weeks ago. Don't get too excited, because if this were a conversation instead of a blog post, I'd be delivering in a deadpan monotone. Chef Erik, the Turkey, and pumpkin pie. So this weekend I'm headed to Istanbul ...

Indiana James and the Slippery Hamam. Misadventures from the Orient. Wednesday, November 16, 2011. Just a little housing crisis. Gate to campus on a sunny fall day- goodbye Erasmus Sarayi (insh'Allah). Just an FYI that I'll be out of the communication loop for the next couple of days due to housing crisis which is leaving me short of time and internet. Don't worry, it is hopefully the crisis that will finally get us into a real apartment and out of the Erasmus Sarayi. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

http://slipperyhamam.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
Indiana James and the Slippery Hamam. Misadventures from the Orient. Friday, April 9, 2010. Hello loyal readers,. My last few weeks have been busy. I am well into midterm territory and on top of worrying about class, I have have been lucky enough to have visitors in Istanbul! So, now that I am getting into the rhythm of class, I can write a bit about learning and stuff. My Modern Turkish History Class is similar. The professor is great (reminds my of Andy Overman), however 3 straight hours of lecture...

Indiana James and the Slippery Hamam: Two steps forward and three steps back
http://slipperyhamam.blogspot.com/2012/01/two-steps-forward-and-three-steps-back.html
Indiana James and the Slippery Hamam. Misadventures from the Orient. Wednesday, January 11, 2012. Two steps forward and three steps back. Well, of course it was too good to be true. Yesterday right before lunch, as we walked by our new boss's office, we stopped him to say hello and he calmly told us we need to move out of the apartment as soon as possible (actually he said "as long as possible" but we understood him). Then he refused to talk any more with us. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Rumi's To...

Indiana James and the Slippery Hamam: February 2010
http://slipperyhamam.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html
Indiana James and the Slippery Hamam. Misadventures from the Orient. Friday, February 26, 2010. As of 48 minutes ago, I wrapped up my first week as a student at Bogazici University. In the week and half since I last posted, I have discovered that I am a Russian student, oppressed by every force possible and struggling to survive in a bureaucratic machine that cares nothing for me. In fact, I believe that I might not even exist. Thanks Turkish bureaucracy. Luckily, things got much better from there. Which...
