Yes Monica.

Add to that Mehmet Kurt is more or less like the J.Smith of Turkey. :) Kurt = wolf in Turkish,which is a common symbol of "Turkism" ideas.Anyways,I'm not going to go into details here :P But I'm lucky having Kurt as a surname.(souvenierwise :P)I've got a "NYC" key ring and "Oregon/Crater Lake" chatelaine,with "Kurt" written on both of them. easy to find :P So Abs reference to Cobain thing is spot on.

I hope you have a great time! I hope you can have the chance to go around Turkey, especially to the Aegean and Mediterranean Coast.

Just curious:
what kind of a workcamp is that? Are you going to work in a farm or stg?
