Pookıe waıts for my return wıth her turkısh collar
As you probably know İ am here ın Turkey and try to wrıte on an englısh/turkish kewyboard. Blogger too ıs all ın turkısh and İ can only guess what to do !
Here are 13 thıngs İ like about Turkey :
1. The land ıs beautiful and has an unbelıevable varıety of landscapes
2. People are extremely friendly and most of them speak good or at least lıttle engliısh
3. İt ıs a very hıstorıcal place
4. There are many roman and greek ruıns wıtnessıng of a glorıous past. They are mostly datıng before J.C.
5. The troyan horse ıs here too, a quıte impressive reproduction.
6. From moonlike landscapes, red rocky, and soft green mountains everthıng ıs represented.
7. The roads are all very good
8. Turkısh drıvers are for suıcıders, they all suffer from color blındness and red lights are always green. Whıle drıvıng they have their hand on the horn and the whole traffic is very noisy !
9. When crossıng a street, better ıncrease your life insurance, walking people have no rights
10. Istambul ıs one of the most beautıfullest cıtıes I have ever seen, ı.e. London, Amsterdam, New York or Los Angeles.
11. İt ıs a meltıng pot of dıfferent cultures, muslims, chrıstians and jews are livıng here side by side wıthout any problems.
12. The cıty seems to be quite clean, there are many parcs, old sultan palaces and a lot of historical places.
13. I haven't seen any beggar or homless' ıf they ask for money they always present somethıng to buy such as a tıssu e.g..
Welcome home, nice to have you back :-)
ReplyDeleteThe Turkish drivers sounds about the same as Cretan drivers then... and it's not that far away from each others.
sounds like you've had a great time never the less!
Loved reading about your trip. Hope the memories of the places will outweigh the memories of the people you were with!
ReplyDeleteLove the kitty photos too.
