I will be in İstanbul! Kind of crazzzzzzy.
I am pumped, of course. Spending my last Friday night in town having my favorite drink at my favorite bar in Tulsa.
Drink: Pachuca Riot (Mezcal, Rum, Bitters, mint, maybe some other things?)
Bar: Hodges Bend
Then I'll trompse over to Bohemia to eat dinner with a friend. Who knows where things will go after that but I'm guessing they'll end at Vitus.
If you know me, you know I love to dance.
Can't stop, won't stop.
Does İstanbul like to dance? I'm about to find out.
My friend who is currently in Istanbul asked, “are you ready for Turkey?”
To which I replied, “Is Turkey ready for me?”
Ready or not, here I come (like the Fugees).
I'm importing some bitters & benedryl for my İstanbul host who I haven't actually met yet but we've both crewed for the same Sailor and I think that's a fantastic connection.
I can't wait to see all the things, eat all the food, take all the pics, and meet new friends in a foreign land.
Escaping this swamp won't be too bad either.
