Becoming famous

Life on the truck is rather strange at the moment. Everytime we have a conversation the film crew begin taping us, if I look out of the window then a tv camera is focused on me. Hannae is the young Japanese girl who the film crew is following. She is not famous but answered an advertisement in Japan for applicants to take part in the trip. The crew will be concentrating on Hannae as we journey along. I am in a cook group with Hannae so once a week will we be responsible for buying the food and cooking for everybody on that day. On our first cook day the film crew followed us through the local market, filming as we tried the food and attempted to buy half a kilo of tomatoes from non- English speaking old Turkish ladies. Having a film crew results in traders giving you a lot more free samples! Later on that evening we were filmed in close up as we cooked our ratatouille, trying to be Jamie Oliver is harder than it looks.
