My Journey From Turkey to Brighton

Hello! I'm Gokhan. Today I'd like to tell to you a small story about me. So I'll write about my first day in Brighton and how I arrived here. I was in Turkey on the 31st of September in the morning. My family and my girl friend took me to the airport. I wasn't unhappy, because I was excited. Eveything were OK until I boarded the airplane. The hostesses told us some information about flying. The hostesses were really funny, because they were like a cartoon when they were giving us information. The airplane took off and then the hostess asked me about my meal. But I had some problems. Because I didn't understand anything. I hadn't heard that language before. Fortunately I had something to eat. I was very tired and slept until I arrived at Heathrow Airport. It was a very big airport and I couldn't speak English. I was afraid for a few minutes. But I didn't have any problems. I found my suitcase easily and I went to passport control. When they understood I couldn't speak English, they found a Turkish employee for me. So, I left the airport. First of all I understood something.The traffic system would be very difficult for me, because it is different from Turkey. The driver sits on the right side of the car here. I learned this. But it was very funny. When I got on the bus to come to Brighton. I tried getting on the bus on the right side. When I saw the wheel and the driver, I was really surprised. I did this again when I tried to get into a taxi. I would be careuful. Any car might crash me.
