I apologies for the time between entries, and no entries about the particulars. its all coming i promise.

I've been trying to figure it all out here, between the Curving sea's and the winding streets, things are complex here within this metropolis, and larger context country. it is true what they say about Istanbul as the line between two different worlds, yet at the end of the day it all comes back to what seems to matter most, and that is whats best for Turkey.

I've never lived in a city this huge, and at the same time unaccessible, it goes on for days, stretching out on two continents like the carpets of which it is famous for each neighborhood apart of the larger piece, its intreicacies and theme may be different, yet in the end it is all connected and apart of the big picture.

Is the city unaccessible because you don't speak the language? Either way it sounds like a really cool place to be.

On a related note, my roommate and I recently purchased an exquisite Persian rug from a flea market in San Jose for 15 dollars.
