They came out with a song called "Antidepresan," which is very popular! I liked it when I heard it for the first time. But I do not know what the words mean!
I took a boat tour on the Bosphorous River! It was so cool to see all of the old buildings along the river, and I got to spend time out on the water! It was also really interesting to learn more about the history of Turkey's famous buildings. There are so many that I cannot even count them!
I've been reading articles on Turkish history! In particular, I want to understand why Turkey is involved in Syria. Turkey is part of the war in Syria because it wants to protect its borders, and the situation is really complex. I decided to learn more before I traveled to Istanbul.
While I did not play any games, I definitely watched some games! Many people in my hostel watched the World Cup, and it was fun to talk about who our favorite teams were.
I went to so many places in Turkey! I went to the Galeta Tower, where I saw a wonderful view of the city. I then went to Taksim Square, where I ate a traditional kebab. I also tried out many different restaurants and went dancing--that was fun!
