Travelled to Istanbul for 2 weeks!

The start of my summer vacation began in Istanbul, Turkey and I rushed to explore many of the hotspots and hidden gemstones of the city! Day 1: Not going to lie, I was tired and stayed in my hotel with room service 😂 However, the rest of the week I bought the Istanbul Tourist pass and went to: Hagia Sophia, Blue Mosque, Sultan Ahmet Parki, and the Galata Tower. Restaurants: I ate at Seven Hills Restaurant as well as a photo shoot there 😍 Frankly, I ate at many comfortable places because most of the places served the same type of food. Be mindful of what you spend, it’s very easy to blow hundreds on trinkets, Turkish delights and many other items 😂. Do better than me! I’m weak when it comes to shopping, it’s my therapy.
