Coming to Istanbul today (19/09/09) for a week

Salam people,

My name is Bilal and Im coming to Istanbul this afternoon until next Saturday. Ive confirmed coming to the Internations party on Tuesday, although I have no real idea how to get there!

Obviously like any tourist Ive got many things I want to see and do, but it would also be really nice if someone could meet up with me when they have time and show me Istanbul from the residents perspective.

I look forward to any replies and thank you in advance :)

Best regards,

Bilal.
