Farewell Istanbul!

Waning down to the last morning in Turkey. Have had an absolutely amazing time over the last few days. Way too excited about shopping and not as excited as I should be about seeing the sights i.e mosques and palaces.  But most of all, I have just enjoyed the people. The kindness has just been overwhelmingly heart-warming.



Even with my battle wounds in tow (at least a dozen mosquito bites, blisters on feet, hay fever, PMS, eye infection, skin rashes/upper thigh chafing...), Istanbul officially has a piece of my heart. Will definitely be coming back and spending more time here. There is still so much more to see and experience.

I'm now just hanging around waiting for the next part of my trip and as July 16 draws nearer, I'm getting every bit more anxious about seeing Cosmin again. How will we act? What would I even say?!?!? It feels so ridiculous that two years of a relationship can come down to this point. I've always said this throughout the last few months - we owe this trip to ourselves...Regardless of the outcome, we deserve to see each other again, even if only for a few weeks. And if it should be goodbye, then it should only be done properly.
