Living in Istanbul ❄️ | Turkish Breakfast, Cozy Snowy Evening & Lasagna for Dinner✨

Hi everyone, hope you’re doing well.
In this vlog, I went out for a Turkish breakfast and enjoyed the rainy Bosphorus view along with my breakfast. Later in the evening, it started snowing, everything felt magical and cozy, and I made lasagna for dinner. After that, I went out to enjoy the winter festive vibes in the city.
I hope you enjoy this vlog 🤍
