Who am I?

 Hello,

In this post, I'm going to tell you about myself.

My name is Yusuf. I'm from Sivas, Turkey, but I have been in Gaziantep for about 10 years now. I live in an apartment with my mother and brother. I am a teacher of English at Private Deva Schools in Gaziantep. I love my job.

My lovely hometown in the map of Turkey

In my free time, I like to play basketball, read books, watch cartoons and spend time on social media. Nowadays, I cannot play basketball because I am in Sivas due to the February 6 earthquakes. I'm a big fan of the NBA basketball. I don't have a favourite team, but there are a lot of basketballers I love to watch. Stephen Curry, Kawhi Leonard, Chris Paul, James Harden and Zach LaVine are a few of them. I also like watching cartoons. I usually watch cartoons that I used to watch when I was a child. As for reading, I love classic books. I love to see the world from the eye of a person who lived a long time ago. That's why I don't find new books very attractive. Lastly, my favourite social media environment is Twitter. I like to learn about the latest news from all around the world. I follow people, journalists, celebrities who tweet in Turkish, English or French.

I think Zach LaVine is the best dunker of all times. After Vince Carter ofc :)

That's all about me. What about you? What do you like to do in your free time? What are your interests and hobbies? Tell me about them in the comment section.

That's all for now. Thanks for reading. Goodbye.

      My favourite cartoon is Family Guy. It's a cartoon like the Simpsons, and it is not for children. It's great fun. And, I do not watch series. I rarely watch films.

      I like Cristiano Ronaldo very much, but my all-time favourite is another Ronaldo, who was from Brazil. But he had to quit football because of an injury at a young age.

A book review

Hello everybody, In this post, I'm going to write a book review. This is a very important book for me. First of all, let me tell you the basics about it. It's called "Of Mice and Men", which was translated as " Fareler ve İnsanlar " into Turkish. It is a novel, but it is not very long (novella). It was written by John Steinbeck, a famous American author. It was first published in 1937, and it has got 107 pages originally. This is the cover of the book in first edition. The main characters of the book are George and Lennie. George is short, but he is a strong man. Also, he is Lennie's best friend. On the other hand, Lennie is very tall and very strong, but he is mentally disabled. In other words, he is like a baby. He cannot do anything without George's help. He always asks George before he does something. Lennie and George in the film version of the book. George and Lennie live together. They have a dream; they want to make a lot of money and buy a f

My Lockdown Routine

Hello guys, In this post I'm going to write about my lockdown routine. I live in an apartment with my mother and my brother. Because my brother goes to work (he works in shifts), usually I am alone with my mother nowadays. My weekdays and weekends are no longer like what they used to be, but still there are things I enjoy doing during this lockdown. For me, weekdays means online education nowadays. On weekdays, I usually get up at around 8:30 o'clock. Then I start my lessons at 9 o'clock. I usually have my breakfast in one of the break times. My lessons finish at around 1 in the afternoon. Then, I usually spend time with my mother, doing things like watching tv, chit-chatting, having snacks or doing some housework together. In the evening, we usually have dinner at around 6 p.m. Then we always have a tea time while we watch TV altogether. After spending a couple of hours with my family, I usually spend time in my bedroom. I sometimes read a book, but usually I am on social

What to watch during lockdown?

 Hello, In this post, I'm going to tell you 3 TV shows you can watch during lockdown. We cannot go out much because of the pandemic. So, it would be good to know some nice TV shows to watch during this time. The first one is an anime series. It's called  Haikyu!! .  Hinata (the boy with ginger hair) is the main character. It is about a high school student who wants to be a professional volleyball player. He joins the volleyball club in his school, but the other students think he is too short for volleyball. However, he doesn't give up and strives to be a great volleyballer. If you like animes and especially the ones about a sport, you must see this. Second is a talk show. It's called Jimmy Kimmel Live! . Jimmy Kimmel is a comedian and the host of this talk show. He invites many celebrities to his show, so you can see some of your favourite celebrities there. He is also very famous for pulling pranks on little children. He asks parents to pull a prank on their children,
