Thanks Louise! I didn’t have my usual photographer (or camera) with me for my trip to Istanbul, so I struggled a little bit to get the shots I was looking for. Appreciate the feedback, though! I have sooooo much to share about my time in Turkey, and look forward to doing so over the next weeks. I’m SO happy you and Freya are going to get a chance to discover this amazing country and I will look forward to hearing your thoughts on the place! XXX

Thank you for your kind words, Leonie! I think you and Grampa would really like Istanbul. Hope you find yourselves contemplating adding it to your travel list after reading my blog and seeing the photos.

I do love wandering around a European city from time to time! I especially love somewhat being able to blend in and visit unnoticed – it changes from Africa!

Bruno and I have arrived in Cappadocia. It was VERY cold (snowy, in fact) in SE Anatolia, so we sort of sped through. In fact it’s cold here too, but we’re going to try to persevere in order to see the sites. I’m guessing we’ll be heading south at the beginning of May, so indeed, we will see you soon! SO looking forward to it!

I loved reading about your solo experience in the fabulous city of Istanbul. I was there teaching for a year, several years ago and though Phil finally arrived from Switzerland, I had plenty of time on my own.
The museums and galleries are first class and the new exhibitions were always exciting and worth a visit. I’m happy you made it to Chora….fantastic mosaics!
Plenty to chat about when we finally get to meet up in a few weeks (or sooner?)and we are very excited at the prospect of meeting you….and catching up with Bruno of course. xx Angie
