It was my fourth time in Istanbul and the fourth time I had the same feeling the moment I took a walk in the old centre. The impression that I could somehow taste the vibe of Ada Kaleh.

I vividly remember the times when my parents use to tell me stories about the mysterious island where time stood still: Ada Kaleh. Danube’s Atlantida. About the bazaar, the fig trees, the glamorous sewing lady who lived in Ada Kaleh. About Jasmine tea, about the 600 ottomans living on the island. About the jewelry and precious fabrics brought all the way from ‘Stanbul. About the Ada Kaleh cigarettes and about its sad end, drowned under the Danube’s waters.











Tudy and O – as predicted, it was bound to be a crazy but memorable trip

I couldn’t imagine what great adventure were waiting for me when I first embarked on this trip with Prestige. Now, four days after my return, I still look back and marvel. From floating in a salt lake, to flying over Capadoccia in a hot air balloon, from visiting a resort that looked like a set from Charlie & the Chocolate Factory to being a guest in an aristo hotel that made my jaw drop. L-I-T-E-R-A-L-L-Y.
My first trip with S was in Istanbul so yeah, I have another reason to feel connected to this place. ![]()
In case you were wondering, the answer is Yes. I looked like the mad, eccentric lady of the #Presstige group.

Bluza pe care o porti in tinuta cu jeans ♥
Eu am fost in luna de miere in Instanbul, si in oricate alte locuri am fost de atunci, tot a ramas orasul meu preferat, e frumos mai presus de cuvinte (desi probabil nu voi putea fi niciodata obiectiva avand in vedere clipele petrecute acolo).
I miss travelling :((((((( so jealous
Omg ce poseta minunata 🙂 Chanel can’t do no wrong
In sfarsiiiit! Ti-am tot urmarit aventurile pe instagram si abia am asteptat sa ne povestesti mai multe 🙂 Awesome post!
Tinuta cu rochia lunga e asa frumoasa, ador atentia pe care o acorzi detaliilor – acel lant delicat auriu – cateodata ele sunt cele care fac o tinuta sa “stand out” 🙂
Well, you sure know how to travel in style 😉
Ce frumooooos! <3 Si eu vreau la mare!
Te-am urmarit peste tot pe unde am putut, loved your fb lives, ati fost in niste locuri minunate 🙂

Ador rochia din primele poze, parca esti scoasa dintr-o poveste in pozele astea
Your trip looks awesome but I am terrified of boats haha so I could never enjoy sailing the Bosphorus sadly 🙁 Can’t wait to see more awesome photos :DDD
You look gorgeous and I’m loving the travel photography as well 😀 Istanbul is truly a wonderful city, I agree, you can definitely feel a taste of its old spirit when you walk in the ol centre 😀
Frumosul si fascinantul Istanbul… <3 Am fost de doua ori in timpul iernii si imi doresc sa ajung si primavara
