We were just wondering what month you were there? We will be there the first 2 weeks of November this year with out 3 yr old and 10 month old. Ive heard mixed reviews all over the internet of what the weather will be at that time. Are we naive to think it is just going to be jumper and jeans weather?

Omgsh that is awesome timing! I have a couple more posts coming up about Istanbul as well: the hotel review of where I stayed today, a shopping one next week, and then a look inside all the tourist spots! :) hope you have a blast!

Absolutely love love love your blog! I have been following it for a long time now. I just left Goa after spending a month there and now in Istanbul for 10 days, so you couldn’t have blogged about Istanbul at a better time! Thanks for these posts, can’t wait to visit all the places you have mentioned xxxxxxx

That is a hard choice! I really want to stay at SUmahan when I go back but it’s pricey – 2nd maybe Witts because its amazing and Galata is a good area to be for shopping!

I travel a lot as well, I like to hear were your going and what you do. I just came back from Andorra, skiing trip. On the 7th I’m off to Iceland for four nights, I know it’s one of your to-do list, I hope you make it out there one day.

I actually had the privilege to stay at Sumahan on the water and it was incredible! I also stayed at Bankerhan by The Sofa which was equally amazing, you should check it out! :) Great article!

That’s awesome the airline has that program. I didn’t know! I think Iceland does too. You’ll have to go back some day :)

I brought back apple tea for a friend :) Some Turkish people told me, they don’t drink it – they just sell it to tourists and only drink black tea! How crazy

I covered so much in 10 days! I actually tend to see and do more when I travel alone than when I’m with someone. It was a blast! & with my xmas present Kindle I kept occupied at meals on my own haha

I’m so jealous of your trip and I can’t wait to read more about it! It definitely looks like you made the most of your 10 days there :)

I’ve only been to Istanbul once and it was actually on my way to India! I only spent 48 hours on the stop-over via Turkish Airlines.
I can’t remember which side I was on but probably the Turkish side as nobody but the hotel staff spoke English lol!

They were great though and really looked after me as I was travelling solo and just wanted to see everything! I was really impressed and hope I can go back again very soon for a much longer period of time!
