After a week long hiatus (not that too many people noticed surely;), I have returned from a magical trip to Istanbul. I've been wanting to visit this city for so long now, and I have to say, it not only met but surpassed my expectations (never a good thing to have but they seem to cling like hand baggage). I wanted to document my trip while I was there, but I was stuck in a quandary I find myself in quite frequently when I travel: somehow by putting the camera or pen in between moments, I distance myself from the actual experience...but I hope to capture the essence of that journey in a few blog entries (I did of course manage to snap away while in motion;) to come. This long weekend led me to do a whole bunch of nothing (read, nap and watch movies) and kept me away from the Mac while it was being fixed (again). But got her back, so more to come.
