Back from Istanbul/ Blogroll?

BY ONEIKA RAYMOND




After three full and very amazing days in Istanbul, Liebling and I boarded a plane late last night and now find ourselves back in Berlin. Despite the terrible cold and wet weather which marred our stay, I found Istanbul to be majestic and impressive, and the people of Istanbul (known as Istanbullus) were ridiculously welcoming. Suffice to say that I really “vibed” with the city… Me thinks I could totally live there for a year or two as there are so many treasures to explore and discover- this despite three days of inclement weather! Liebling and I agreed that the place must be amazing in the summer. Pics and accounts of our stay there are forthcoming so stayed tuned for that… I also took some video footage of the city so I’m hoping to make a short clip of our Turkish sojourn.

So, moving on to my second order of business… I would really like to put a blogroll up. A number of my favourite blogs have long had “Oneika the Traveller” featured in their blogroll and I would really like to do the same… Not to mention that blogrolls are a great way to discover new blogs! So if you are interested in being included in this blogroll, please comment here or shoot me and email and I’ll be sure to add you to the list!

  • hey oneika! I'd love to visit Istanbul one day and I can't wait to see your pics and hear more about it. Oh, and you look gorgeous in that photo with the flag behind you!

    I think you already have me on your blogroll, and I definitely want to stay there 🙂

  • hey lady! i recently added turkey to my list of places i'd like to visit so i look forward to your updates with pics…funny how, even in a short span of time, some places can really click with us huh? i found it like that in LA – didn't think I would like it but loved it.

  • Did Leibling also feel like he could live there? Maybe it's time to expratiate an expat. What do you call someone who's an expat twice over?

    I can't wait to see more pictures of. I can't say it's really a place I've ever been dying to visit, but now you've piqued my curiosity big time!

  • I wud love to be part of your blogroll. I don't travel as much as you do but you keep me motivated…that's for sure.
    Also, cannot wait for your videos and updates if Istanbul.

  • @crystal: mille fois merci!! you definitely should go to istanbul (but make sure it's in the spring or summer)!! and how could I have a blogroll sans toi!?

    @chizzy: will be sure to add you! cant wait to see where you are off to next!

    @lei: haha! i told liebling what you said but he doesnt know who that is! i think that they could possibly ressemble each other when liebling has facial hair (which isnt often, and it's a damn shame cuz i think he looks so hot with a goatee)!

    @kay: yes, I know what you mean! sometimes you connect with a place (or even a person!) and it's inexplicable! maybe it s the feng shui of the place!?

    @mamacita: he really liked it as well and is adamant that we go back in the summer!! luckily him and i are kindred spirits in the sense that we love living abroad and seeing new places… i already told him that he needs to hurry up and get a teaching degree so we can go live and work in all these exotic locales! not too sure what the correct terminology would be for expatriate expat, but am having fun trying to come up with a name… 😉

    @Rhona: will be sure to add you!! as for the footage, im itching to get back to hong kong so i can play around with imovie… 🙂
