Travels to Istanbul + Returning To The Blog

I believe this has been the longest I've been away from this blog, and I regret my decision to distance myself from Indigo Ink. So much so, in fact, that I am determined to start posting regularly, perhaps once every two weeks. I wanted to start off this (early) New Year's resolution with some of my photographs from my trip to Istanbul back in February that I never shared.
You can expect a few more traveling posts in the next few months (from my trip to Morocco in June and my travels to Iran in July/August, as well as my upcoming visit to California in December). I truly hope you will enjoy these little snapshots of my brief journey to a distant land.

The Hagia Safiya

Istanbul was crowded with stray dogs and cats, and although some were frightened of travelers, some were extraordinarily friendly (like this one) and even posed for a picture. 

On almost every street there were various stands, selling not only food, but little trinkets and souvenirs. There was a variety of fresh baked breads in the mornings, served with cream cheese or Nutella, roasted chestnuts and grilled corn, available morning, afternoon and night. 

The Basilica Cisterns

Also, Indigo Ink turned three in August! I can't believe I've come this far.
