Back from Istanbul [Through My Lens Nr. 531]

After five wonderful days in Istanbul, I’m finally back home, still carrying the sounds, colors, and atmosphere of the city with me. Together with family, we spent our days wandering through the streets of the old town, exploring the lively waterfront around Galataport Istanbul, and stepping into the incredible history of Dolmabahce Palace and Topkapi Palace. From grand imperial halls to hidden corners filled with the scent of coffee, spices, and the Bosphorus air, the city once again proved why it feels unlike anywhere else in the world. Over the next few posts, I’ll be sharing many more stories, photographs, and little moments from this journey: the places we visited, the views we discovered, and the atmosphere that made these days so memorable. For now, these are just a few snippets to set the mood and prepare you for everything that’s coming next.
