It Really is All Turkish to Me...
If you know Turkish for, "I have 6 carpets already. I do not need another carpet" the vendor will reply, "...well you could always use one for the seventh day."
If you say, "I have 34 leather jackets already." ...then he will invariably say, "well why not buy one as a gift for your cousin he will appreciate it."
Street hawkers are still about selling roasted hazelnuts, street bread, and shoeshines.
Have grilled fish right out of the Bosphorous, enjoy a ferry ride, check out the covered Grand Bazaar with 4000 shops and you will really know what a headache is!
Fine palaces and mosques that pierce the midnight sky with a Turkish moon to light up the silhouette.
East meets West here as 32 million people share this city perched on 2 continents realising that no-one really has personal space.
