Yousef’s
hopeΚάθε φορά η ίδια ιστορία, λίγο πριν ξεκινήσω να γράφω, ξέρω πως οι πρώτες λέξεις θα είναι αυτές που θα αρχίσουν να φωτίζουν τις μέρες που πέρασαν. Αυτές που θα τους δώσουν χρώμα και ζωή.

INTO THE
BLACK SEA COLORΤα δυτικά παράλια της Μαύρης Θάλασσας είναι αγαπημένος καλοκαιρινός προορισμός για Βουλγάρους και Ρουμάνους. Το χειμώνα, όσα ξενοδοχεία θα παραμείνουν ανοιχτά θα γεμίσουν με Έλληνες ναυτικούς και Τούρκους επιχειρηματίες. Εδώ δεν είναι Βουλγαρία αλλά ούτε και Ελλάδα, εδώ είναι Βαλκάνια.

Few shots of Istanbul
In the old days it was called… Byzantium, Augusta Antonina, Nova Roma (New Rome),Constantinople, ‘Queen of Cities’, ‘Vassilevoussa’(‘The reigning one’), Megalopolis and ‘City of Seven Hills’. Today it is called Istanbul, probably stemming from the greek words ‘eis tin poli’.
