It’s been quite a few years since my last international stint so I could not resist an invitation to come to Istanbul, Turkey for four weeks. As much as I love my apartment, home, family, and life in New York City, I am excited for a little change and adventure. I am always looking to grow not only as a model but as a person as well, so I hope to learn a few things in Istanbul. They say it’s the East meeting the West, where Europe and Asia collide in a very cosmopolitan city. I look forward to lots of culture and experiencing something I don’t encounter everyday on the island of Manhattan. Sure, it has culture, but my passport is in need of a new stamp so I’ve got to go. 🙂
