Flying to Istanbul!

Yep yep, THE day has finally arrived. In 4 hours I'm taking a flight from Paris Orly to Istanbul.
A lot of people have asked me "why Turkey?". The thing is, it's the most far away and warm I can travel without having to take a visa :D and also because I know ABSOLUTELY NOTHING about that country. So exciting! I haven't been checking ANY information at all, no pictures, no maps, nothing. My other friends who are coming already checked some tourist guides etc. but I haven't. Maybe I want to keep it as a surprise :D I'm also not a very typical tourist so...

We also got an answer from a farm near Fethiye (close to Rhodos) that can host us from 8th - 9th of January. So I guess I will be spending 10 days in Istanbul and after that we'll be heading south with Céline and Manon in search of farms :) In Istanbul I'll first be hanging out with my finnish friend Edla. She's european thai box champion so I guess I'll be safe! Tomorrow my german friend Luise arrives also and she's a real farmer cowgirl, and of course there's ME! And later we'll be joinned by french girl Céline who has done some judo and other martial arts too. So I guess we have enough muscle in our team to keep us safe, heha.

Next time I'll be writing it will be from the edge of Europe :)
Ciaooooo!!

P.S. It's also kind of sad that I will be geographically so close to my birth land Syria without being able to visit it... Stupid human kind, stupid dictators, stupid wars...
