June

Hey Everyone!

It's been a while since my last post, so I decided to put a little more effort into my blog, especially now that I have some free time due to Ramadan.
My summer has been great so far! In the beginning of June, my girls and I went on a short trip to Istanbul, a trip full of laughter and excitement! We went hiking, survived the protests as well as strolled around Sultanahmet.

After spending a weekend in Istanbul, I went to Antalya where I met my mom. We spent nearly four weeks together and it was delightful! As I was growing up, I was used to be on my own quite often, and now that I spent five years abroad, I'm quite independent from my family. But every time I stay with my mom, somehow, I turn into a kid. Or, better say, I turn into Garfield.

Anyway, it felt great to be taken care of, spend some quality time with my mom, as well as do things I really love: swim, watch movies and read books.

I'm actually writing this post from Exeter, and although it was a bit sad to leave Turkey, I'm glad to be back. July and August are going to be extremely eventful for me, and I'm looking forward to every change waiting for me :)

For now, here are some photos from this past month and I hope your summer is going great!
