Good Article on Istanbul

People love asking me questions about Turkey when they hear I am from Istanbul. It is such a fascinating city both for past visitors and visitors-to-be. There are so many different areas and so much to tell in terms of things to do, history, culture, and of course food, I find it almost impossible to fit what I want to say into a day's conversation. Even though I left almost 12 years ago, there are certain things that never change. Then, there is a lot that changes, especially the trends, fashion, attire, and places to be at and be seen. Life goes on at a dazzling speed 24 hours in Istanbul, which makes the capital of the United States seem like a small sleepy town.

I loved this article about Istanbul (you can read it at USAToday Article on Istanbul) since it sums up how much the city has to offer, what goes on in terms of current trends, and how dynamic and exciting the city is - renewing itself with another new venue and place to visit every single day and still clinging to its omnipresent history and its implications. I hope you'll enjoy it as much as I did...
