Eva and I decided we hated perfect temperatures, cheap food, and all-you-can-eat lychees, so we went to Europe. First stop: Istanbul. With the recent happenings in Turkey, we had the imperial city almost by ourselves. Istanbul is great. We got an AirBnB two blocks from Sultan Ahmed square. What neither of us were ready for was close to freezing rain. We spent almost all of our time in the city whining about how bloody cold it was but still we got to see, eat, and walk our way around the city that connects Europe and Asia (making it that I technically went to 5 continents in less than 1 year).
