After UKOUG, I left Birmingham for a small London trip. I met Coşkan there, chatting on working and living conditions in London really motivated me, I have the strong feeling that I should try this for some time. With New York, London was the nearest city which gave me this feeling compared to İstanbul. As Coşkan mentioned of 33 days holiday a year, no over time forcing, the quality of living in London and how much an experienced Oracle/Unix expert may be satisfied there, lots of my friends will sure also be interested I guess. One more advantage of London is that it is just 3,5 hours away from my family and friend. So I am back in my home town, and there is no place like home for me still ;)
