This is Ugly’s face when there is chicken in the oven.

The wider they are, the more I know the chicken is done. Who needs a thermometer?

This is literally. Fucking gross. I thought it was horseradish.

It’s unbelievably awfully tasting….

I’m making my very famous blood chicken. Found a chicken place with the freshest chickens on earth…that cost 5 euro..

But wait…for the 5 bucks I also got 2 massive additional chicken thighs. Craziness.

Incredible over the top high quality. Yeah IKEA.

I think this costs around 6 bucks = no more wet socks. Life doesn’t get better than this..

Photo of sock drying coming soon. Stay tuned.

MY SLIBBS HAVE ARRIVED, MY SLIBBS HAVE ARRIVED.

You keep asking for awesome zipper stories, and I keep on delivering.

Went to Vlas to pick up my old boots from my local “bootmaestro” and since it’s impossible to replace the broken zipper he has added a super cool leather strap MAD MAX style so I can keep on using them….they are otherwise perfect. 5 bucks well spent.

Now I have 2 pairs…

2 legs = 2 pairs!!!

Fake Fanta generously provided at the Turkish border crossing. It’s, naturally, delicious.

Woohoo, I finally found some proper Turkish trout balm.

Random store on the way back bus ride. I’ll actually smell like “The Beach”, when I’m at the beach. Also bought this other super strong lemon cream aftershave. Similar to what the haircut-man doused me with but in a super light non-greasy aftershave gel. Super refreshing, almost like a Vick’s nose inhaler but for your skin. None of this stuff costs more than 3 bucks…amazing fun to cost ratio.

My friend Kris just sent me this photo from Cuba. This is a genuine Cuban cat.

What a crazy world.

OHHH god…just one last meal before bus…I still have 15 minutes…I can’t stop.

Just one last Borek time before I depart. Thank you for your understanding.

This is alllll just so good.

Detox starts tomorrow. Back to rotisserie chickens, tomato salads and chickpeas.

My veggie shop should be open any day now…..10 tomatoes a day, that’s the summer plan.

A Turkish haircut is an experience of a lifetime. I have been cranially massaged and now I smell like lemon juice. 10/10 experience.

Last Simit. I always say “best trip ever”……so I’ll say it again – BEST TRIP EVER.

Coming back ASAP. it’s almost cheaper to travel here and have fun than to stay home.

Makes no sense, I know.

If it wasn’t for society’s taboos, I would eat 150 of these in one sitting.

I’ll keep on playing the Decathlon Game (DG) until they start selling quality shit.

The game is as follows. I buy their stuff, it’s not cheap, when the stuff is even remotely dissatisfiying, I’ll yell at them. The green puffy jacket (note, not my amazing orange jacket) started to have a funny zipper pocket. I bought this coat in January and the zipper should feel tight and satisfying, it was not, it was sketchy. Additionally, it’s spring and my current requirements call for something less bulky and more rainproof and nimble. Since everything is in their CRAZY ASS high tech app….I can walk into any of their shops around the world, give them a sob story and have my item refunded or exchanged. In this case, I upgraded to a fancy rainproof spring coat that matches my backpack perfectly. The difference was about 14 bucks which I paid with a smile.

Life doesn’t get better than this…

Breakfast is extremely cheesy today.

I wonder how lucrative spirograph sales are in 2023.

I’m assuming high margins, low inventory and logistics costs, you choose your own hours and pay no tax. Cash business, after all.

The fishes these guys catch are barely the size of 2 thumbs.

Rain and storm means one thing – time to ride the rails.

Weather has been so weird, mostly OK but when it’s not OK it’s freezing and pouring rain. It was 22 yesterday. Heading north to explore a different neighborhood.

Bus late this evening. Should be home by 5am for vacuuming, laundry and nap.

The 1st thing I always think about.

Mashka, the official Taksim Square pup.

This is, BY FAR, the most animal friendly a just shockingly cat loving country on the planet. Cats are almost holy creatures here. And people say I’m nuts…

That reminds me, the next cat tattoo is in order, couple more weeks. Midlife crisis continues.

All that gluten and dairy…

Rode the trolley 2 times today.

Once right outside on the rear hitch (very dangerous, something only spiderman would do )….and the 1st time on the inside paying my fare. Dangling on the outside is way more fun.
