Via Travelling Aloud
How very relaxing… I could definitely use more music like this.
“Bosphorus” by Brazzaville
Just met with my brother to finalize plans for our trip to Turkey next week!!!
Here’s the song made me consider it in the first place. Everyone should be listening to Brazzaville if they’re into world-weary travel music.
She was married to the Bosphorus
She threw her ring in then she blew a kiss
To the Ottomans and Byzantines
Lying beneath the sea
She wore a pink and yellow summer dress
She kept her hair just like a poetess
She traveled all the way to Germany
The trains and the cold, dark sea
The amber glow of a morning cigarette
On the Istiklal Cadessi
The vapor trails and the tiny minerettes
All the domes in silhouette

About me
I am the age Juliet would have been if she had not died in the bittersweet embrace of love (or is it delusion?). While I do not live in New York, London, Paris, Rome, or Milan, I am quite happy in our “quaint” Jet City, absorbing in every little drop of the sky’s tears. I love many things with an open heart and a sensible mind—perhaps on the top of the list, being my family and friends, my ideas, and freedoms… too many great things to hold selfishly in my arms alone. I am a soldier marching onwards! onwards! blazing my pen before me. Fondly Yours,
Quicksilvertrance-tt
P.S. A toast to all the things that have caught my eye, my breath, my heart:
All the things that have made me smile.
