Whoever has been to Istanbul will understand — it’s a city you can’t help but fall in love with. The call to prayer echoing through the streets, the scent of fresh simit and coffee in the morning air, the blend of chaos and warmth that somehow feels like home. Yes, it’s loud, it’s crowded, but its liveliness, its people, and its energy are what make it so special.
In a city that never stands still, Russian model and psychologist Annushka — from tanksmanagement — reminds us to pause — “Take care of yourself, rest, and don’t try to please everyone.” A quiet contrast to Istanbul’s beautiful chaos. Together with photographer Meriç Tuna, she captured the spirit of Istanbul — her own beauty intertwined with the city’s timeless charm.
