The smell of wool,
Tea on your tongue, the heat of the glass in your hands,
The thunder of a carpet unfurled,
Dizzying patterns, exquisite colours— vegetable, synthetic,
Knotted by knotted hands,
Foot-worn, or pristine.
originally checked your blog for your drawing, but the freshness & enthusiasm with which you experience (wonderful)Istanbul is contagious. I breezed through the whole thing in two days. keep living every day and keep making our days brighter through this site and follow them birds
Harika is the Turkish word for wonderful, marvellous, extraordinary. It has always been one of my most favourite words, for both its meaning and the pleasure of pronouncing it.
Welcome to Harika, the adventures of a compulsive sketcher.
