After spending quite a resort based vacation in Bahamas, it was time for me to travel somewhere with some more historical heritage. Prior to setting off on my next travels, I made sure to get some good rest and time with the family. As a frequent traveller, it can get quite tiring moving from one location to the next without taking a break to do absolutely nothing. Thankfully, I had ample time in the weeks after returning from Bahamas to recharge my batteries and prepare for my next trip.

My trip to Bahamas was for my birthday to celebrate being a quarter of a century old. And this trip is to celebrate my 1 Year Anniversary on Steemit!

So, without further ado, I present to you.. the country named after a bird! Yes, that's right, I'm in Turkey!
There are so many reasons to visit Turkey, and over the course of the next few weeks, I'll be showing you in detail all the wonderful places I've managed to visit, including the Hotels I've stayed at, the restaurants worth visiting, the ancient monuments and even the places to go shopping!

These are pictures from my very first day in Turkey, many of you might have guessed that I would visit Istanbul and you are absolutely right, how could you visit Turkey and not visit Istanbul?

Looking outside the window of the plane is becoming one of my favourite things to do on the plane. I used to request an aisle seat to make toilet trips convenient but foregoing the view from a window seat really was not worth the slight inconvenience and I decided on staying by the window.

Some of the best times to take pictures are at sunrise and sunset. As you can see, the sun projects a haze of pink across the vast field of clouds in view. It's like waking up to a baby's dream, surfing across pink clouds.
