Here I am with non-existing my baby bump. The place everything started. I am in Adana where is south of Turkey, also is my hometown. Adana is the 6th biggest city in Turkey. It’s best known for the very famous food called “Adana Kebab”. Which is why I call the land of kebab. I think my hometown is the hilarious city in Turkey. Because the weather is too hot,…
I know I know I am terrible at doing some of my scheduled things. Unfortunately, this is one of those things of mine that I have to reschedule over and over. Of course, I am talking about my video series “Coffee Talks with Newest Yorkers” which is supposed to be in every two months. Because of terrible weathers, messy schedules of New Yorkers that I want to chat with and…
There is Something Wicked About New York
December 16, 2016I don’t know who is the craziest? me or New York weather? Even though the light of my photos is great, It was a very cold day when we did this shoot. New York is insanely cold since last week and getting colder and colder. I’m even ok with 0 Celsius now as a born and raised Mediterranean. In fact, I’m always cold even in winter of Mediterranean. Then…
Fazil Say is my favorite classical music virtuoso. He is one the biggest artists in his time. Because he is not only a performer but also a composer. Can you imagine that he composed his first piano sonata when he was 14 years old? I barely started to write my first stories, at that age, lol. Such a talent. It is such a privilege to have him in…
I lived in Williamsburg for a year and I never need to go coffee shops like I do right now. And I haven’t thought of writing about best Williamsburg coffee shops. I used to live in this building that has so many space and amenities with a beautiful East River view. Fatih used to push me to go somewhere in the neighborhood all the time. I refused to go…
Coffee Talks with Newest Yorkers: Melissa A. Martin
November 27, 2016I finally complete my new Newest Yorker interview. I promise to do this videos every month but I was so busy during October and Arriana was so busy for November and I was kind of being lazy to pursue one of my friends to do this coffee talks with me. I was being late to do this video but I find the perfect Newest Yorker. 2nd episode’s guest…
Finally, I decided to write coffee shops in Greenpoint. I moved to this neighborhood last September. Since then I am all around the place. But first I want to talk about the history of me and coffee. I love to try new places, especially new coffee shops. I have to admit when I first come to New York, I couldn’t go any other places than Starbucks. It is embarrassing…
Today’s look is from East Village. I love to show you around in New York, I feel like you are browsing the city with me. It always fun to go a place and meet an acquaintance from the city to show you around just for a couple of hours. I think this is what I do with my New York Guide for a while. I am so excited about this look.…
An Eid, A Newborn Baby, A Wedding, The Ultimate Istanbul Vacation
September 25, 2016Here I am again going to Istanbul. This time just for 10 days. I am going to attend one of my best friends’ wedding in Istanbul. You may know Deniz from some of my IG photos or not. Actually, this isn’t very important. The thing is she is my friend from college and we both very lucky to live in New York. It’s very rare thing to live…
Central Park is probably my favorite place above all. It is another universe in the middle of chaotic New York. I was one of those lucky people who live close enough to run in the park every morning. Those were the pretties 3 year in UES. (Check rest of New York Guide Posts) I realized that New Yorkers are really proud of Central Park. Perhaps this is one…
I did this photo shooting with my brother to show casing “business look”. I’m acting as fashion magazine editor in a very busy fashion week. 🙂 I bought this Prada skirt last year from one of my Woodbury visit. And the Prada shoes are from my famous ebay hunting session. These shoes were very iconic during 2013 Fashion Weeks and me as poor (financially) blogger couldn’t afford them…
