Charming Weekend in Miami
We took a quick weekend trip down to Miami in February and it blew me away! I am an early riser, so I wasn’t quite sure if a vacation to a city where the nightlife is so key would be my style, but its beauty overtook me. We stayed at the Fontainebleau Hotel in Miami…
Wandering the Streets of Rome
Earlier this summer I took a trip to Rome to join a few friends for a girls weekend and birthday celebration. While this was not my first trip to the city, it was certainly my first visit with such rainy weather. Fortunately for us, it stopped raining on our second day and we were welcomed…
Relaxing by the Sea in Kos
After a long and exhausting season of work, my boyfriend and I visited the Greek island of Kos for a much needed break. This was my very first time to Greece and I can definitely say the landscapes, people, food and crystalline sea captured my heart. Our vacation started as soon as we landed on…
Journey Around China
My journey around China was a hectic but thrilling experience. In a short 3 weeks I managed to visit a several places in this truly fascinating and diverse country. I began with Beijing, a city full of character and history. I saw the incredible Forbidden City—once completely inaccessible to the public—as well as the beautiful Summer Palace and (probably…
A Road Trip Through England
We recently decided to take a road trip around England and photograph each stop along the way. We started in Cambridge, where we took a stroll around the gorgeous town before continuing on to the south coast and the White Cliffs of Dover. The gorgeous cliffs were beyond worth the two-hour hike to the edge,…
A Journey Through Palestine
Immediately upon my arrival in Israel, I passed through the checkpoints and felt at home in the less-visited region of Palestine. Never have I made such a good choice and never have I been met in a country with so much welcome! For those planning a trip to Israel, an open-minded visit with the neighboring…
The Walled City of Dubrovnik Croatia
Croatia has recently popped onto the radar as a hot travel destination in Europe, and after my husband and I had the opportunity to visit the popular city of Dubrovnik this past July, we could not agree more. Between the amazing landscape, perfect weather, delicious food, fields of lavender, and relaxing by the gorgeous Adriatic…
Exploring Victoria British Columbia
For those arriving to Victoria, British Columbia via ferry, the first steps off the boat are met by the gorgeously simple Huntingdon Manor and its surrounding shops and eateries. Only a short distance from the Manor are a collection of wonderful boutiques, cobbled streets, and some of the most incredible fresh seafood. One could easily…
Eco-Friendly Travel in Costa Rica
Every year my family gets together at the holidays to take a trip somewhere fun. Last year we went to Antarctica and my sister got engaged, which was amazing, so this year we decided to do something a little lower key and a lot warmer! We all have very different tastes, so finding a location…
Discovering Antwerp
I recently traveled to Belgium for the very first time and I absolutely loved it. Despite the fact that Belgium is a very small country when compared to my home country of Turkey, it has its own way of attracting people. Antwerp especially drew me in on this trip and I enjoyed every last mile…
Paris in Black and White
On a wet and rainy day in December, I left for Paris for a few days to fill the little lull between Christmas and the New Year. It was cold, but thankfully I left the rain behind me in the UK. I traveled around Paris by foot and metro to capture these images of the…
Relaxing in Bali
I recently was lucky enough to enjoy a relaxing getaway to Indonesia. Our first hotel in Bali was the Beskih Beach Resort and our first stop was a sunset stroll through the monkey temple at Uluwatu. Uluwatu is a Balinese sea temple, not far from the popular beaches of Kuta and Sanur (where our hotel…
