There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be. The chronicle of my year in İstanbul (not constantinople). Tuesday, January 5, 2010. The morning before we left the Hotel Miracle (! On the coast of the Mediterranean (! I wandered around with a camera. Because the place was amzing. Firstly, I present to you: breakfast! The buffet and Amanda:. The food was fantastic. Looking up at the hotel from the dining terrace. A snack restaurant is vaguely like a snack bar, but bigger. Kind of. A series...

There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be. The chronicle of my year in İstanbul (not constantinople). Saturday, February 28, 2009. Last day of the trip! Blase, Maeghan and I left the hotel early to go to the harbor and take better pictures of Brad Pitt's Horse. Aside from getting from decidedly wacky looks from the locals, I think one could call the excursion a success. And here I present Maeghan and Blase, performing a ninja-meets-pterodactyl fusion. Yeah, I don't know, either.

There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be. The chronicle of my year in İstanbul (not constantinople). Tuesday, January 5, 2010. Anyway. The sun was fun, the minibar was fun, the disco was fun, but after a couple days, the fact that there was nothing do actually do started to rub. Apparently the point of resorts is to do nothing? On the other hand, the food was both excellent and free. So there's that. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Mid-April through early July. Host Mom, Host Dad.

There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be. The chronicle of my year in İstanbul (not constantinople). Wednesday, December 30, 2009. The rocks in Cappadocia are weird. Some tour guides say that Cappadocia looks like the surface of the moon, but frankly, if that's the surface of the moon, NASA kinda missed something. A lot of somethings. You remember the podrace scene in The Phantom Menace. Seriously. Star Wars. Dude, there are anti-gravity rocks! Maeghan, notably less hardcore. Having...

There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be. The chronicle of my year in İstanbul (not constantinople). Friday, November 28, 2008. Nope, they won't call. Why? Because it's an international number. Yes, of course it's an international number, I'm an American exchange student and my insurance is from the US. This is "Universal Hospital," what do you mean. You aren't authorized to make overseas calls? Look, it'll take two minutes, just call the number. Please? Yeah I know.". My host mom a...

There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be. The chronicle of my year in İstanbul (not constantinople). Saturday, October 18, 2008. The Hole in the Floor. There’s a hole in the floor. I don’t know where it goes. Let me explain. The first story of this apartment complex (charmingly labeled “-1”on the elevator keypad) is a parking garage. Along with all the requisite dust and strange smells, it has, about ten meters from the stairs, a hole in the floor. I step very quietly when I walk by.

Seeing as we did most of this yesterday. Most of the 11th was the drive to Gaziantep. Speaking of which, this is the license plate of a Syria car parked outside our hotel:. Apartment in Hatay. Interestingly, even in what could gently referred to as "the boonies," apartment buildings were more common than single-family ...
