Frequently Asked Questions:

When do you leave?

• I am leaving Monday May 6th at 10pm out of Logan. I'm sitting with Jenny on the plane. We're stopping in Frankfurt for a few hours, but will be in Istanbul Tuesday afternoon.

Why are you going?

• As part of the Northeastern MBA program, they offer international trips every year called "International Field Studies". This is the first year they're going to Turkey & Greece. For some of the full time kids, it's a required class, but a lot of evening MBA-ers are on my trip.  It counts as a full class.  We will be visiting various businesses and doing some touristy things too.

You get credit for this? 

• Yes. I'm required to write a reflection paper and keep a diary to hand in.

What is your schedule?

• We will be in Istanbul until Saturday night and flying to Greece on Sunday. The program doesn't officially start until Weds, but we are arriving a day early to fight jet lag. 

• The program in Athens ends on May 16th, but Jenny and I are staying on until Saturday afternoon to play in Athens a little more. 

Also, I promise to be really safe and not get into strange cars. I will not wander off alone. I promise. Do not worry. :)
