One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

*I travel to Azerbaijan and Turkey in July of 2014 after winning a essay contest from the embassy of this country. I was able to know a lot of the muslim culture because i was on the Ramadan season.

Being able to see this festivity and have a close encounter with the muslim people, also enjoying the sunsets of Istanbul from the balcony of my hotel room watching the Bósforo while i was reading Oriental Express from Agatha Christie.
