Istanbul. Where i miss most is Istiklal street :) & the people, i miss the people a lot.

It's nice you're in Luxor at the moment. I bet the weather there is beautiful. I'm from Cairo.

Like the sound of your migratory habits. Have you flown north yet? Myself I live in the perpetual spring.

Do you know of any books regarding Ottoman gardens?
