Rakı Balık explosion in Amasra for Bayram...;)

Best view...

Yeap... I went to Amasra for Bayram... My first time actually... We were welcomed by a couple (Nuşen hanım and her husband) from Amasra... They were the ones who rented their house to us... Pretty cheap, 100 TLs per night for all... up to 8 people can actually enjoy the clean not so great but good enough apartment...

As soon as we left our bags, we went straight to rakı-balık like we have never had rakı balık before... we found a small place by the sea with the nicest waiter I have ever met... He almost was calling a special guitar player for us but luckily the guy didn't answer his phone... Anyways, we had our rakı-balık (HAMSİ)... and it was amazing... we thought that nothing can top that... of course since it was our first day... we didn't know that we would keep on eating all the time... and each time enjoying it more and more... with the guilt going through our veins faster and faster... :)))



Best Hamsi :)



Yes, we ate a lot the next day too... gözleme for breakfast, HAMSİ for lunch and HAMSİ again for dinner... we weren't going to but the waiter insisted that they had the best hamsi in the town... well he was right... UNFORTUNATELY... :) The best hamsi guys... is in CANLI BALIK...



Best company II...



So basically... My Amasra visit was about eating, good company and enjoying the beautiful view... no need for more.. right? Il dolce far niente...;)) All I have left is the photos and the amazing sound of the sea... ENJOY...

Best company...:))





PS: Amasra is one of the cheapest places for rakı-balık ;)))



High expectations for unknown reasons...

Today is my birthday... Yeap... I am 29 and been celebrating my birthday since saturday... It started of with a huge party... Which was a lot better then I expected and today is going great so far... Lunch with colleagues, beautiful flowers to my office from my boyfriend, great wishes on my facebook from everyone... Thanx to all btw...;)

But there is this question bothering my head for the last week... Every year since I was a little kid, I had the tendency to make a huge deal out of my b-day... I don't know why... Some may say its bc I crave attention... But no... I thought about that too... Thats not it... Its st else... Ofcourse it has the attention part in it but not all is about that... (because I know that I only want my close people around me and some peace)So...

Why is the high expectation for unknown reasons???...

I always had high expectations for my birthday... started planning from months ago... fearing that it wont end up great... and finally... all ended up OK...

This year I decided not to do anything... at all... But again ended up celebrating it for 3 days... Dont get me wrong I love it... but still questioning myself... WHY?...

Then I noticed that... I am not a person with high expectations at all, and throughout my regular life I am more at ease, understanding and patient... in most cases lets say ;))) But on my b-day, for once I think people should be acting like that towards me... Close ones at least... :))) and maybe thats why I just want MY people to be with me at my b-day... Still keeping the group small for my high expectations, in order not to be crushed...

So after a week of questioning...

Sorry guys, bare with me, but I still have 8 more hours to act spoiled... :))))))))

Upon request... ;)

Yes, upon request from my b-friend Pedro (which as u can tell from the name, Spanish;)) I will mostly write my blog in English...

I don't know if he wanted to share my excitement for my new initiative or just wanted to have it under control.... :P  but here I am writing my blog in English... :))))

Regards... :P

Blog açmak ya da açmamak...

Yıllardır düşünüyorum aslında bir blog açmayı... ama bi türlü karar verememiştim... Bugün çok sevgili arkadaşım Emel'in gazına gelerek, sonunda karar verdim... devamı gelir mi onuda bilmiorum ama bakıcaz işte...

Bu arada blogumun adıda yine çok sevgili bir arkadaşımdan esinlenme... Orçun... Bana nedense "comopolite serseri" der... Aslında nedenini biliyorum ama paylaşmak için biraz erken galiba :)) Zamanla daha rahat yazarım heralde... Şuan blog dünyasında yeni olmanın verdiği acemilik var üstümde...
