Istanbul food

I ate so much good in Istanbul! A lot of turkish food. I really liked the turkish meze, a dinner or appetizer with various dishes in bowls or small plates which we all shared and ate for a long time.
And of course I drank many cups of turkish coffee:)

Istanbul mix

A mix of random photos from Istanbul.

Hope you're having a good Saturday! I'm still so tired after the trip so I'm going to bed now + I have to work tomorrow..!

Istanbul: Brunch & Joseph Beuys

One morning we went on a boat which took us to a nice brunch together with a tour of the Joseph Beuys and his students exhibition. Amazing place.

PS. My camera has decided to break again so some of the pictures I'll be posting are bad..sorry. The camera still works but mostly it takes bad blurry pictures. I think I'll buy a new one when I can afford it. Until that, I'm going to use Rasmus camera and the broken one when I have to!

Istanbul Biennial

Phew! What a week! We came home yesterday night and it's been quite strange to come home to my calm little city... Now in the end I can say that Istanbul is almost too much of everything. But I had a great time and the city is really worth visiting!! It's like a different world:)

I have loads of pictures to go through and see what I'm going to show you, I start with just a few from the Biennial. There was much good works, also lots of good videos. Lot of political work and collages..
I'm going to check for the names of these artists and write it down later.

In Istanbul

Istanbul is great. I think it's the coolest city I've been in so far. WOW WOW WOW!
It has been raining some days but we've also had nice weather. Luckily we didn't really see a sign of the terrible flood in the center of the city. The city is huge and there is so much more to see.

I'll be back soon with a lot of pictures:)

Soon

We're leaving in 6 1/2 hours, now I'm going to get some sleep. Hopefullly. I always have problems to sleep the night before I'm going somewhere..
I hope I can blog one or two days from Istanbul but I'm not too sure! It depends on how much we have to do there.
Take care and see you soon:)

Apples

We made our own apple sauce yesterday with apples from my dads garden. It is soo good warm with vanilla icecream + bisquits!

2 more days and then I'm off to Istanbul, have no idea what to take with me..I guess it's still quite warm there.

Sushi and a gorilla

I spent yesterday evening with my family, we ate sushi and saw some heart-shaped fireworks.
Later I saw a weird group of streetmusicians, the money collector was dressed as a gorilla...scary!

Weekend

I'm going to be lazy throughout the weekend.

Have a nice Saturday evening!

Summerpics

The summer is over. This week started with rain and windy weather, leaves are flying around everywhere. Suddenly it went so fast! I miss the summer already..but I don't say I don't like the fall because I do. I look forward to cosy evenings and thick tights!

Here are some pictures from this summer, most of them are from our summercottage, I hope I haven't showed them before.
