Here's my trip to Germany and Istanbul in a nut shell! I definitely want to go back and spend more time in these countries, 4 days is NOT ENOUGH :( There's so much to see in the world and so little money and time that I have. Hopefully my next adventure will be in east Asia. It's funny how I'm slowly making my way around the world. I'm hoping to end up in Japan one day.
Mainz, Germany
This guy was so welcoming :)
We found a safe place just in case it might rain haha
Say this 10 times, it will make your head turn
Reminded me of SF (just a little bit)
So sad there wasn't enough time to eat dessert here.
Where is the water coming from?????
It seemed like I was walking through disneyland
Were ready for Istanbul!
The BLUE MOSQUE
Tivo!
It was so enchanting inside
Hagia Sophia
It tasted yummy
I found Jasmine's father
So detailed and ornate
Such a mysterious place...I loved it
medusas head
traditional turkish dessert with pistachios
they had like 40 different kinds of baklava
I loved the lamps!! I would decorate my whole house with turkish decor
shopping central
bars galore!! we couldn't choose!
The view from our hotel
The sultans palace
spices!
I really liked all the designs, especially with the gold etched in
water closet time
No words can describe this moment
coffee with the cutest dishes
yummy tea!!
The best meal I had in Turkey, eggplant with...
Hagia Sophia at night
SHOPPING! AT THE GRAND BAZAR, biggest shopping center I've ever seen
the scarfs were so beautiful, I wanted to buy 10 of them
Turkish drink that tasted like hot rice pudding with cinnamon, it was soooooo goood. I would go back for just this :)
Our residence, such a difference from Ghana
Gotta go home :(
Turkey is truly an amazing place if you like to shop and see the beautiful side of the middle east. I enjoyed being there with my OT friends. I can't wait to go back! WHO'S DOWN?!
