Istanbul, Turkey | Travels
Last summer I had the incredible opportunity to visit Turkey. I went with a group of old friends to visit a good friend who had recently moved back to Istanbul. It was an amazing trip on so many levels. The country is so rich with culture – both incredibly old and preserved as well as very modern and progressive culture – a very unique combination. We mainly were in two areas over the course of the trip – Istanbul being the first and main stop. I can still taste the yummy food and see the stained glass lanterns in my mind, everything was so rich with color and culture. I would love to go back someday….Enjoy the photos!

The Bosphorus… 
I wanted to buy ALL the lanterns and decorate my place with them but only could buy one or two after much bargaining!
