We decided to change the setting today and met at
Newk’s. My conversational partner had
never been and wanted to try somewhere new so I suggested Newk’s and we met
there. We picked a table by the window
and began to talk about the guest speaker that came to speak to the TEFL
class. I shared with my conversational
partner how inspiring the guest speaker was.
I also mentioned how she helps Syrian refugees get acclimated upon
arriving to America and he was extra interested by this fact. He mentioned how Turkey helps hundreds of
thousands of Syrian refugees. This interested me to know more about how Turkey
is dealing with all the war taking place in that part of the world. He informed me that they do not support the
violent acts taking place in those disorderly countries. The Turkish people are kind and always
willing to help the good people any way they can. He mentioned that sometimes they experience
bombings near the border, but they simply help one another recuperate.
