Istanbul

Travelling abroad is not a simple decision to make, especially if you’re planning to visit a city that you’ve been there first 22 year ago (October 1983). Yes, that is my second time in Istanbul.
I do believe that at my first time there my vision of the city and its people was much more romantic and naïf. I’m much more critical and cynical now!

Istanbul is still one of the most beautiful cities of the world; the atmosphere is special and unique. Unfortunately I can say the same about the Turkish people: I just hated their behaviour, some exceptions of course, in general they aren’t friendly or nice, well, they pretend to be, but they aren’t at all!
