Before visiting, We make a plan.

Istanbul has two airports. It may be good to know the transportation routes.

You could want to stay in Old City. It's good. But, You should stay away from clichés while visiting Istanbul. Therefore, I will make you an alternative Istanbul trip plan.

You can visit modern art museums. For example, Modern Istanbul, Borusan Museum, Atlı Köşk. Apart from these, there are many non-historical museums. Cartoon Museum, Cinema Museum, Koç Collection Museum. I especially recommend you to see the Koç museum. It has a huge collection.

I want to talk about alternative foods. You can eat the world's best turbot in the northern part of Istanbul. You can drink boza at Vefa.

I recommend you to do these after you have done the travel guide in your hand.

2019 was an important year for me. Because I changed jobs in 2019. My previous job was in the construction industry. But my new job was in the energy sector. This situation challenged me a bit. I learned new things and decided to learn English in 2019. This was a requirement for me.

Also, I was in the final year of my Master's degree. I had to work hard to finish it on time. The university was in Izmir. For this reason, I had to go to Izmir often. I was afraid of trouble at my job. Luckily it didn't turn out the way I thought. I graduated from my master's degree in August 2019. I had very valuable professors at the university and I learned a lot from them.

This has affected my work in a good way. The company expanded my job description. It also gave me new responsibilities.

Then, I got used to my new job. So I felt better. But problems arose in my private life. I could no longer get along with my wife. I got divorced in December 2019.

Now 2019 was ending... And an old friend of mine called. He said let's make his old stories an electronic book. I said yes. This offer encouraged me. So I started dreaming again.
However, I think these changes are good for me. 2019 had been a year of changes.

I proposed to my girlfriend in Kaş. We were on the beach and it was afternoon. There was a full moon in the sky. There was no one around. We were walking and chatting. I was waiting for the right moment.

Where the moon reflects on the sea I stopped. And I said beautiful words.

She said: Yes!

İn my opinion, love is sometihing magical. Therefore, I believe in love at first sight. İn my opinion, Love isn't a relationship. And, Maybe you can fall in love with someone you will never love.

İn my opinion, For to fall in love, We don't have to know the person we love.

When I explained the situation, they said there was no problem.

Fight Club claims to be an opposition movie. But it's actually a classic hollywood movie.The Narrator and Tyler are same person. And they both hate women. After discussing the movie, I changed my mind. Could be a good action movie. But it's not a dissident movie.
