Pisa

Eylul geldi catti, ilk haftasini bitirecegiz bile ama sanirim eylul sonuna kadar ben hala sizlere yazlik outfitlerle postlar yapiyor olacagim. Acikcasi benim icin hic sorun yok sortlari jeanlere tercih edenlerdenim . Neyse sonbahar yaz kis ilkbahar demeden ben gezime devam ediyor ve simdi ilk sirada sizlere Pisa'dan bahsediyorum.Italya'nin en onemli sembollerinden biri haline gelmis, kucuk bir sehir olan Pisa icin sabahin cok erken saatlerinde havaalani yollarina dustuk. Fotograflardan goreceginiz uzere uykusuzlugun vermis oldugu hafif bir dagilmislik soz konusu. Aslinda Pisa hakkinda pek bahsedecekte bir sey yok diyebilirim ve sanirim hissettiklerimi en iyi bir meteforla aciklayabilirim; FAST FOOD. Eger tatil anlayisiniz bir sehirde bikac gece gecirip o sehrin havasini suyunu azicik da olsa hissetmekse Pisa onlardan biri degil. Her bir kosesinde turist goreceginiz mumkun oldugunca erkenden ziyaret etmeniz gereken ve ardindan da hemen baska bir sehire (mesela Siena gibi:) kacacaginiz bir yer bana gore Pisa. Biz de bunu dusunup hem sicak hemde kalabalik turist kafileleri bastirmadan gezimizi yapip, fotograflarimizi cekip, sehirde biraz tur atip, oglen yemegimizi yedikten sonra ayrildik. Hic bir sey yok dediysem sakin yanlis anlamayin cok sevdim Pisa'yi ozellikle guzel mimarili katedrallerini. Ve herkese gidip gormesini kesinlikle tavsiye ediyorum ama sizi bekleyen daha guzel yerler varken fazla da vakit harcamayin derim ;) .  Bir sonraki post asik oldugum sehir Siena'dan takipte kalin besinci kat misafirleri ;)

Well, it's already September and I think I'll still be posting summer outfits till the end of this month. But for sure there is no problem for me at all, I always prefer shorts than jeans. Anyway no matter which season it is,  I'm gonna continue my travel-outfit posts and now I wanna talk about Pisa and the leaning tower.  Even though it's one of the most important symbols of Italy, it's pretty small city. So except tower and beautiful cathedrals, there is not that much of to talk because if you want to stay in a city for a couple of days and feel the soul of that place, for me Pisa is not one of them. If I use a metaphor for pisa I would say FAST FOOD. I think those are the best words to tell my observation. But still don't think that I didn't like also I highly recommend you to go see this beautiful place. But don't spend too much time while there are lots of beautiful places are waiting for you.  I believe all these tourists are  too much for a small city like this. So if you don't want to visit this city with lots of people, as we did, go there early in the morning and then after you do almost everything in there escape to another city like Siena :) Next post will be about Siena so stay tuned 5th floor guests ;)

Last day in Barcelona

Benim icin Barselona her seyin bir arada bulundugu bir sehirdi. Deniz, kumsal, ask, nefret, sanat, kaos, melankoli, mutluluk... Ne ararsaniz bulabilirsiniz. Benim Istanbul'um gibi. Barselona'da Istanbul ve daha nice avrupa sehirleri gibi insanlara ilham veren sehirlerden. Yalniz Barselona beni ne kadar etkilerse etkilesin sanirim hic bir sehrin bana Istanbul kadar ilham veremeyecegi gercegini de degistirmiyor. Cunku hic bir sehir beni Istanbul kadar mutsuz edip, onun kadar da huzur veremeyecek. Yinede Barselona, Istanbula cok yaklasmisti...

For me Barcelona is kind of city contains everything inside. Sea, beach, love, hatred, art, surrealism, chaos, melancholia, happiness... You can find whatever you looking for. Like my Istanbul. Barcelona, like Istanbul and other european cities, is an inspiring city. But still doesn't  matter how much I like and inspired from Barcelona, there is one irreversible truth: Istanbul is the most inspiring city for me. Because there is no other city make me unhappy and happy at the same time. Still Barcelona was about to getting closer to Istanbul...

Gaudi'nin Barcelona'yi nasil etkiledigini resimlere bakarken anliyorum. Zaten Barselona'da sizi mimarisiyle, butunuyle etkileyen bir sehir bir de Gaudi isin icine girince buyulenmemek imkansiz. Bunlardan birisi de Sagrada Familia. Ustelik ilginc bir ozellige sahip kendileri henuz bitmemis olmasina ragmen dunyanin her yerinden milyonlarca insani kendisine cekebiliyor. Yani gordugunuz gibi bu kadar insanin bir bildigi var. 

While I was looking pictures, I definitely understand how Gaudi impressed Barcelona. Barcelona itself already has an inspiring architecture but also when you put Gaudi into play, it is impossible not to being charmed. One of these works is Sagrada Familia. Besides, it has a strange feature; even though its construction has still been continuing for years, it attracts billions of people all over the world. So, I think all these people have a good taste !

PARC DE GUELL 

4 gunluk gezimizi bitirip otelimizde ucak saatini beklemeye koyulduk. Buarada nerede kaldik sorusuna gelince Praktik Hotel. Belirmek isterim ki eger Barcelona ruhunu ve mimarisini birazcik yasamak ve merkezden uzaklasmak istemiyorsaniz tam sizlik.

Waiting for our flight in our hotel. By the way here is the answer of the question where did we stayed Praktik Hotel. I want to mention If you exactly want to live in Barcelona architecture and soul, also don't want to get away from the central this hotel is definitely what you looking for.
