1955 / 6-7 september

I found some photos  about the events happened in Istanbul at 1955. And made a slideshow of it.

It's a big shame for Turkey...  Here is the detail how it's happened..
Another shame is this one..

I hope one day, ignorance will be end.

More songs

These days I start to listen more classical music..

Discover the playlist klasik with F.Chopin

In fact, I try to profit from the headphones that I bought.


Also, you can listen this nostalgic song...

Turkish songs

Cute songs from Idil Üner from movies of Fatih Akin; in July, and Crossing the bridge.

I want to ride my bicycle

Since one month, I'm thinking about buying a folding bike...

Choosing the bike is a little hard for me...

I'll buy an american bike which is very known in the market. ( www.dahon.com )


Here is two options that I have... What do you suggest?

My idea is to visit all Istanbul after buying one of them. I guess, the second option is more suitable for this.

First is about 300 € , second one is 400 € .
First is 12 kg, second 13 kg.

UNDERGROUND ISTANBUL >>Tarlabasi district

Is Tarlabasi a ghetto? Maybe... I can say it's like the Harlem, for us..

This is an area which lies the spirit of Istanbul... At least, a part of it.

So, today I could make a little trip to there: I just could take the main street (Kalyoncu Kulluğu). I entered, and get out in 10 mins.

At every corner, there was a strange man, I guess they sale some weed... It's like a place where nobody wants to live.

I don't know why, but this district was always attracting me. A dangerous underground place. As something that your mom tells not to do : )

And the district is attracting me more, after watching the movie Agir Roman (turkish movie made at 1996)...

The movie was taken in Kurdela Sokak...

That movie has an important place for me. Because, when I was in the army, everybody was wanting me to play this movie.. I asked this to my commander, but he didn't allowed. Now, I understand why these guys wanted to watch it, and why my commander didn't allow : )

Because, this is a cult movie of Ghetto...

So, this is the trip plan...

Made in Istanbul

Movie clip of Shantel made in Istanbul..

Very good music... Gives energy..
