Istanbul or San Francisco?

Internet is tough to come by. We are here, and it is really amazing. The culture is so different, the architecture grand, and the food's flavor has been a perk to the taste buds. The city has a very San Francisco feel to it. The topography is quite varied from hill to hill, and the building scale and typology are strikingly similar. I almost feel like I am back in the states at times. That is until I aproach a mosque, or see a women covered head to toe in black veil. Today I went to my first Turkish Bath and massage. Nothing beats it after a rigorous day of drawing and analyzing my surroundings. I feel refreshed, and loose as a goose. One highlight from the last few days is watching the girls all cover up to go into the mosques. It is amazing what a headdress does to a person. Sasha, Ellen, and Jade are all seen here with very different expressions and interpretations. I hope you enjoy.
