The name Istanbul is a testament to its magnificence, derived from the Greek expression 'stin poli,' meaning 'to THE city.' In every language, in every era, Istanbul has been THE city. It's where boundaries fade, waters caress, and dreams take flight. The city with imperial desires and disappointments. The city of immigrants and eternal motion. The city which never sleeps. The city of roots. The city of the “no-strings-attached”s. A tapestry where the familiar meets the unexpected. The city of beauty and the beast. The city of layers and timekeepers. The city of the Occident and the Orient. It's a city with clichés aplenty, perhaps the perfect Orientalist cliché.
I consider myself the stewardess of THE city. Be my guest on digital platforms or in my tours. Feel the pulse? Let me lead the way.
