#6 | Turkey 2014

Hey lovelies, here's the long awaited post for my 10D7N trip to Turkey! I'll be using the pictures to show the places that I have been and give brief description to the best of my abilities. It was not easy to pick out these few photos from the thousands that I have took. (I took nearly 2000 photos, not exaggerating). I'm going to be providing photos with no filters.

Before I begin, If you're not much of a person that reads text and likes motion, here's my YouTube channel, I've made a 4 part vlog on my trip there. Alternatively, you can search #Sharleentravels on Instagram or view my profile at SingingSpikes.

Some details about my tour is that we bought a package from Dynasty Travels and paid about $2300 per person inclusive of a hot air balloon ticket. I'll try to link up as much as I can on the details/hotels etc. So..

Welcome to Sharleen Tour Agency, lets go on an amazing journey to Exotic Turkey ;)

Day 1: Istanbul > Canakkale
After a long 11 hours flight from Singapore to Istanbul, you're taking a tour bus to visit the landmarks in the city in a tour bus with free WiFi! Isn't that the best news you can get after being lost in touch with the internet world? First up, we will be entering St. Sophia Church Museum.

Some information about the Hagia Sophia is that it was formally a church and then it was converted into an imperial mosque. It is now a museum open to the public. When I went there, half of it was under construction to restore some of the faint painting etc. It is one of the largest cathedral in the world.
