So actually a place that I’ve visited millions of times is Istanbul, Turkey. You know whenever I go to this place it just gives me those fresh and natural vibes. It breaks me down from routine. It just makes me remember how life is easier than you think. However, whenever I go there, I just love to explore their dishes, their cuisines, the Turkish culture, the people, the museums, everything there needs to be at least like two to three times. You need to explore Turkey more and more. I would always recommend anybody to go to Turkey, especially Tiramzon or Istanbul. Those two cities are just phenomenal. They are always a bit crowded, yeah, but still I would recommend the Taksim Street in Istanbul is just a perfect ten out of ten place. It’s just its location, the people there, the diversity between cultures, it just makes me just feel relaxed, relieved and more refreshed to start after the vacation or after the holiday I spent it right there.

So actually, a place that I've visited many times is Istanbul, Turkey. Whenever I go to this place, it gives me fresh and natural vibes. It breaks me away from my routine and reminds me how life is easier than you think. I love to explore their dishes, their cuisines, the Turkish culture, the people, the museums—everything there deserves at least two to three visits. You need to explore Turkey more and more. I would always recommend anyone to go to Turkey, especially Trabzon or Istanbul. Those two cities are phenomenal. They are always a bit crowded, but still, I would recommend Taksim Street in Istanbul; it is a perfect ten out of ten place. Its location, the people there, and the diversity of cultures make me feel relaxed, relieved, and more refreshed to start again after the vacation or holiday I spent there.
