Conversation Partner

11:30am-12:30pm
I met my conversation partner today at CIES. Kubra is from Turkey. She is here in the United States with her fiance who is also from Turkey. Kubra is a lawyer and continues to work some law cases in Turkey on the weekends. Kubra talked about her home in Turkey. She was born and raised in Antalya, which she described as a big tourist place with beautiful waterfalls, historical architecture from the Roman Empire, a beach, and mountains. Kubra is 24 years old and has two older siblings. Kubra is preparing to talke the IELTS Saturday in Tampa. Kubra described an incident that happened to her the first week in United States in Key West. Kubra stated they were hit head on by another car and it was very difficult because of a significant language barrier. Kubra said that although the other driver was at fault, because neither her nor her fiance spoke English very well, the police would not take action or take a report against the other driver. Kubra stated that she started learning English in Kindergarten. Kubra loves to cook Turkish dishes and has recently switched to a vegetarian diet.
