I'm İdil. A photographer, traveler and blogger from Istanbul. I have been traveling around the world for 7 years. I love the adventure of the unknown, having butterflies in my stomach when I think of traveling, learning new cultures, meeting new people, intimate conversations with friends over good coffee, healthy and tasty food, movies, creative photos, nature, hiking, being productive and efficient, creating something new. The list goes on but I guess that is enough to give you an idea. :)

PHILOSOPHY

Travel. Do different things and just experience life.
