Istanbul


East meets West.

Europe cosmopolitan side by side with Turkish traditions.

What an interesting place. Great food. Wonderfully nice people. Overzealous salesmen at every corner! I like to do my shopping RELAXED.




Highlight of the trip: with no plans in mind, just exploring the city, I bumped into colleagues, with whom I had parted a few days earlier, in the middle of a busy street in Istanbul. Decided to take advantage of the company and hung out together for the rest of the fun night.
The old Chinese saying "If destined, even thousands of miles away can we meet"

Was that Grand Bazaar? I think Spice Bazaar is cheaper. Sick of Turkish delight yet?
