Arriving in Istanbul

The Bosport

On the way to office


I arrived in Istanbul, Turkey late yesterday evening to take part in a two day workshop. I must say that Istanbul wasn't at all what I had expected. It's actually really nice, people are open minded and the city itself is really green as opposed to the usual Mediterranean bushy landscape. There was a lot of work but one evening there was a company activity that we took part in with a boat trip on the Bosport and a good dinner.

Going to Aligers

Today I'm going to Algiers, Algeria on a business trip. Unfortunately it will be a quick in and out (it's always nice to see something besides airports, airplanes, hotels and meeting rooms).
So, leaving Dubai at 03.00 this morning (talk about a early or late flight) with Air Algeria which should make for a interesting experience. The flight is arriving at 07.00 local time which actually is GMT. I won't get my hopes up for a good flight, but hey, I've been surprised before. Will return late Thursday night.
