Greeting from Turkey



1st of all, let me state that i do not watch the two turkish series and that they'r not the reason we chose turkey as our destination! it's bcoz we wanted to go on a short vacay to somewhere close.. oo since some of our relatives had lots of fun when they came here last march, we said why not go and explore it!

we went to Istanbul 1st oo we stayed at the W hotel.. it's reaaaaaaaaally 7ilo! oo it's location is fatheeee3! loved it alot.. oo the weather was 29 degrees max fa at night it gets a bit chilly..

our room


the area where the hotel is in


bs guys il manather hnaak 3ajeebah!

here are some pics so u can see what i'm talking about!







now we are in Bodrum.. a place for swimming oo relaxing..

the swimming pool


the view from our room


we rented a boat which took us to small empty beaches where the water was cristal clear oo refreshingly cold!







i'll post some more pics later on but now i have to go to my spa appointment .. aaahhh i sooo need a massage after 2 days of sun exposure!

my mom wants to go to turkey since last year, bs im all against it this year. too many kuwaties there after zeft noor.

i think i might reconsider after what i saw here. i just dont like going on vacation in summer and seeing the same people i try to get away from :(

glad youre having fun though :)

I was in Turkey 2 yrs ago.. I didn't like it much... but there are some really amazing places you have to visit, except they're far away from the capital.

Oh and you must see Troy!! Hope you enjoy the rest of your vacation :)
