holiday everyday
More than 4000 shops and almost 1/2 million DAILY visitors.
Turkey is a super tobacco country (not high education + poverty = almost always equates to cigarettes).
Unbelievable excitement to tears and thoughts of deep dejection and sorrow. I’ll have another on the way back like a heroin addict jonesing his next fit.
My new kettle shipped from Amazon on Wednesday, I might only drink chai forever…like a normal person.
I always try to find the weirdest and sketchiest and dirtiest and most out of the way place to het a haircut whenever I travel. Boy did i ever just have the most haircutting-fun ever.
Nicest guy ever. Only used scissors and a comb, nothing electric, nothing fancy. Haircut perfection, artisan. He snipped my eyebrows then proceeded to create this wild concoction at the end of his scissors – a ball of cotton dipped in some flammable fluid…lit it up to quickly burn off my ear hair.
The robe had sleeves.
Then he massaged my head and sprayed my hair and face with lime water. Sooooo nice.
2 euros. I’ll discuss how incredibly inexpensive everything here is. Way cheaper than Bulgaria since Turkey Lira dropped in value so dang much.
This has been easily the greatest hair experience of my life. 10/10.
Actually 1000/1000
I’m so fucking happy. What day.
Did you know the legendary Blue Mosque in Istanbul was originally named after the color of my eyes?
The other photo is a mosque right across my coffee shop. Just imagine. I’m living the heaven right now….let’s be honest this really is the greatest city on earth.
plus….omg..just picked up my 2 obligatory t-shirts from H+M for 4$. I only have about 30 of them now….they’re all the same and I love them equally…
Currently spending the afternoon at Serbian grill. Bus in 7 hours.
Took father and Kris for pork ears. Cats are getting great food…and I got an afternoon fish. The only problem was that my File O Fish arrived upside-down…..I had to flip it over which was exhausting and the worst thing to have happen to me today.
It only took year or so of me laughing but also trying to (fruitlessly) explain these scams to them……poor idiots…they lost actual real money…
Now it’s back to work…no Lambo (but I am sure they chipped in to paying for one to some super smart scammer who took their money so easily and astonishingly, perfectly legally).
