Been in this city that truly doesn't sleep for almost 2 months and now I have a week to go, unfortunately. What's even worse is that it's been so hectic and I've been a bit lazy that I'm pretty sure this is only my second entry since I've been here. Istanbul is seven hours ahead of the east coast of the United States so when I'm waking up for work, all of my friends are knocking out for the night which can be a little frustrating. So what have you missed, hmmm, orientation, first session, trips to the Grand Bazaar, Spice/Egyptian Bazaar, the "Asian side," partying in Taksim, a sisterly pow-wow in a hamam, crazy boat rides with the staff and unforgettable cab rides with much more in between.
Where should I start? At the beginning, sounds reasonable. (Wrote this a while back and obviously I didn't finish it).
