Wonderful Turkish morning (Istanbul)


I got into a bus to go work on a conference today but had no change. Someone used there transportation card to pay, 2 TLs, for me the equivalent of a dollar. I tried giving him 5TLs but he wouldn't take it. I then got off at the wrong stop, foreigner me, and when I asked a private bus driver for directions to the hotel he stopped one of his colleagues and asked him to drive me there.

Turks are such wonderful people which is why this country is so amazing. I love living here and I am proud to be among them.
