Moda

Choosing the blips of my Istanbul trip is incredibly difficult.. Istanbul is a photographer's dream, and there was a picture in any direction you looked. Our trip to the Asian side of the city was a fantastic day and we loved Moda, an arty, animal loving, slightly posh area of the city, where we could have easily stayed and never left again.. We adored the old wooden houses crammed in between the modern ones and we were aghast at what I loved in Turkey even in the 90s, the proximity of old and new, antique and modern, religious and secular.. We went to the Asian side two days in a row, the weather was wonderful and we were in love.
