! i'm moving to istanbul in a month...

[SimonSawSunlight]

...and staying for 6 months.
i'm going to arrive on february 16. or 17., will book my flights soon.
i shall bring cameras, film, a laptop and a spare pair of underpants. maybe a tooth brush. i still don't have a proper place to stay, but that's being worked on.
to those in berlin who want to get drunk together before i leave: let's do it soon.
to those i will see in turkey: you have been warned. or maybe you haven't. in that case you have now.

görüşürüz!

ps:
here's some photos i took there last year.

Sounds very exciting - good for you!

BTW, although we've never met, if you ever need a few days to crash in Paris (if you're ever in town), let me know.

Very nice! Look forward to seeing the results.

well darn it, i did need that last year. most of my parisian friends have moved away, so i will probably take you up on that offer the next time, thanks!

i hope i won't get anyone pregnant, but if i do, you guys will be the first to see the photos!

Istanbul...yeah...nice town.

Absolutely loved Istanbul when I was there a couple of years ago. Hope you have a great time.

 

[Honus]

If I could spend 6 months in any City in the world, Istanbul would definitely be given strong consideration. I've only visited for a few days, but would love to return. Enjoy.

Good luck, Simon. Sounds like a very Jack Reacher way to travel!

I lived in Anakara for 3.5 years and had a great time, the Turkish people are great. Lucky you.

Never been there but my partner has and she loves the place. Post images from there. I like you work and I also enjoy your wry humour
