"knock-knock"..

"who's there?"

"tozgito, that's who!" :)

@ safranbolu, turkey



this is the original hamam sign of the one and only hamam in safranbolu.. check out the number of digits on the phone number! isn't that a laugh!

local creative solution on how to stop cars!

this is just so creative.. they use these as car stoppers on streets, so they don't sneak into the pedestrian area.. shaped just like a typical safranbolu house.. love'm..

for some reason i really relate to this visual.. it might be just a door handle held together with a green band.. but for me it represents something much more, like dual-infinity..

@ yorukkoy, turkey


this used to be one great fish restaurant, but of course like everything that gets popular I have lost all interest.. however, if you are to go to amasra during a weekday than I still recommend it.. on the weekend there is 30 min - 1 hour wait and trust me it ain't worth it

and yet another interesting street sign I encounter.. it says "wear your barret".. shall do captain!!

@ safranbolu, turkey



this picture pretty much describes the area in general.. buildings, nature, people, they are all rolled into one.. complementing each other beautifully and more importantly peacefully co-existing together..

@ yorukkoy, turkey


the end of civilisation as we know it?!!
no no, just kidding.. its just one corner of a busy street that look's forgotten.. but then if you were to ask the locals, they truly believe that they are forgotten.. hmm sad :(

ok now that is something.. the air-conditioner is being used as an eye.. and if you look carefully there is a hand holding a cell-phone.. basically another object (have no idea what) that's stuck on the building is being used as for the mobile.. if you want to take it to another level, you could say the lamp is representing the third-eye.. but i think that is going a bit too far wouldn't you say.. :)
@ granada, spain


well hello kitty-cat!! was not expecting you here.. more creative use of graffiti.. give me more!

@ granada, spain



and voila the giagantor alhambra palace.. well this is only one little bit of it.. they should put it on the top 10 palaces to visit before you die list.. and might i add, they love their water this lot..

@ granada, spain



this is the upper side of alhambra palace, called "general-life".. have no idea why they call it that.. but it basically was there chill out place during the summer.. the gardens are absolutely amazing..

@ granada, spain



i'm not at all a polito person but love the simplicity of the banner.. has a "che" feel about it..

@ granada, spain



beautifully decorated house exterior.. flowers, pots & pans, and what have you.. "genious i tell you, genious":)

@ granada, spain



an interesting take on street signs.. cool girl about the cross the street, get ready to rumble?!!..

@ granada, spain



the double-decker bike!

you can rent one of these and take it to a spin around the maria-louise park.. it's hard to control but definetely great fun.. don't drink and drive.. trust me..

@ sevilla, spain



meat-packing district?!!..

might as well call it the meat-packing district.. this is your usual restaurant / bar with meat hanging from the walls.. don't know whether to find it estethic or disgusting..

@ sevilla, spain


sevilla on wheels!..
insert coin, take out bike, ride bike, return bike.. great system!!
@ sevilla, spain

all building corners, store fronts, side streets are like this.. its like art is squishing (even) out of the buildings..
@ sevilla, spain

cyclo-estetico..
its like a post-card picture (not the touristy kind though, i'm talking about the cool ones you want to collect)
@ sevilla, spain


gothic in a nice way..

the light fixtures are just amazing.. much like the doors, railings, and what not
