City Of Dreams

Having spent over a month in Istanbul, I decided to write about it. I wanted to stay clear from the usual East-meets-West narrative and such over used clichéd points of view and present the city through a series of snapshots, focusing on particular images and musings as I take the reader with me through my day to day living in the city. My narrative is in the shape of a journal, each entry describing one of the dream-like experiences lodged in my mind.
