It's true that we all have love-hate affairs with the city we live in. Especially if you have that type of affair with more than one places, things become complicated; corners take different shapes, you mix shops, you feel like eating fish n' chips afterhours where you only see stuffed oysters around.. But it's amazing how Istanbul can be adorable in one spot and three steps later you think "What the f... am I doing in this place? How did I ever land here?". And then you see a cute old couple holding hands and feel fine again. Last whole month has been like that. Revising my everything here. And I started loving some people more; and stop caring for some others.
Finally (I) Fall again
Sunday empty day...
...from my window
...old man and orchid
...kids' artworks thrown in the rain

My halfway trip to Greece
Yesterday I took the train in the morning to go to Thessaloniki and meet my friends and escape this city. The journey was beautiful, rainy and cold. In the coupe it was warm and I was listening to my favourite sounds. I was finally reading a book without any screen around. Very content... In the turkish side of the borders I was told I cannot pass to the other side because of some bureacratic detail I had missed on my passport. That's when I stopped taking pictures. The images I saved in my mind and the smells and sounds will stay as if recorded...
