Not specific to religious locations - I’m just fascinated by ancient architecture overall. The fact that some of these places were created hundreds (thousands?) of years ago and STILL stand is awe inspiring to me.
Interesting Cenk doesn't mention Turkey's imperialist past and shameful involvement in the slave trade?
Interesting fact, Turkey only abolished slavery in the 1930's, after European papers reported white girls openly on sale in Istanbul!
Slavery is part of Islamic law and always will be. Odd he promotes the religion of slavery.
Monumental architecture basically stands for millennia if not purposefully damaged or hit by natural disasters like earthquakes.
To be honest, this feels like Cenk just wants to share his marvelous trip photos and videos. And you know what? I’m totally here for that.
Vertical photos are marvelous? Who does that?

I'm Bulgarian American living in Chicago for 24 years and every time I go back to Bulgaria me and my Bulgarian relatives prefer to go for vacation in Turkey regardless that Bulgaria have amazing beaches on Black Sea shore. What brings us in Turkey again and again? It's the hospitality and the friendliness... Not to ignore the delicious food and the incredible choices given to chose from, entertainment, history and not to be ignored - great prices. Next year I'm going back to Bulgaria and guess what I'm going to Marmaris again. As an artist and Orthodox Christian I was interested to visit some of the most famous mosques. Some of them are masterpieces of architecture and interior design. I felt welcomed, in piece and respected during all my visits. Politics and history bitterness asaid - some of my best vacations!
Hello neighbour :) Love from Istanbul.

Well said Neighbor.

I went to the Blue Mosque, it was beautiful and the workers were very informative. What struck me the most about Turkey was the public transport was spotless absolutely clean ( I worked in NYC at the time, their public transportation is not clean. ) . The country was beautiful.
I found Istanbul’s transportation infrastructure much cleaner, nicer and efficient than what we have in NYC. Topkapi palace was my favorite place to visit!
Marmaris Anatolya Ismir Instabul Mersin etc. those are all great. I am talking about mainland turkey. Coastal turkey is heaven.
Cenk is right about the ruins. I've been to Ephesus and the Roman ruins there are amazing.
Ana's face when Cenk said "middle aged" killed me! lol 3:27
She doesn't even realize she's hit the wall.
The oldest Archaeological settlement in the history of the world is in Turkey. The Gobekli Tepe predates Sumeria by a long shot. It's twelve thousand years old that was built in the neolithic era and was the beginning of civilization.
Beginning of known civilization. 🤭
When I was a college professor I had a number of Turkish students. They were all some of the smartest, nicest students I ever had. Just lovely people.
Beaches? Really? Had no idea? Gorgeous. If I was going to Europe I would add it on to the list for sure now
Did Cenk just pull a, "hey look at my vacation slides on projector" -I am dating myself for people who remember what I'm referring to.
Oddly enough I had Turkish pizza for the first time today at a spot in Toronto and me n my buddy were thinking it's now our go to pizza spot lol
Went to Turkey in 2014 and loved it so much. Was expecting a gloomy Eastern European vibe, but was blown away by the sunny vibe in the Summer surrounded by two seas in Istanbul. Great cuisine, people, ruins, mosques etc. I'm Muslim so I guess I'm biased, but it's such a beautiful country
Marmaris Anatolya Ismir Instabul Mersin etc. those are all great. I am talking about mainland turkey. Coastal turkey is heaven.
Visiting Beaches, Ruins, and Mosques all sound delightful!

I spent 1986 at Diyarbakir AB and I loved it. Everyone on base went to see the ancient monument nearby (Mt. Nemrut) and shopping in town. The people there were very friendly, warm and welcoming, even to us military folk. I'd still love to go back one day.
CENK, I've been here performing in Bodrum, Antalya and living in Cemekoy in Istanbul since April (performing here since 2014)...man I would have been honored to have run into you and shaken your hand. Blessings to you!
Thank you Cenk for showing me that NOT ONLY MY DAD FILMS FOOD AND MAKES ME WATCH IT hihihi ... also speaking of my beloved Dad: Ana, growing up in Southern Germany, we hiked every weekend and as a young teenager I was of course forced to participate. Not ONE weekend without examining some chapel or church, not ONE SINGLE WEEKEND ARGHHHHH trauma ..... 😁
I went to Turkey recently and, quite honestly, I couldn't care less about beaches and fishing. I really enjoyed getting lost in the streets of Istanbul and contemplating the city's old architecture. I also really liked the ambiance and the flexibility of the opening hours of third wave coffees. As a night owl, I always want to go chill in a coffee with my laptop at 6-7pm but they're always closed... not in Turkey! I also liked Kadiköy because it is more Turkish, less crowded and touristic. The most interesting historical buildings such as the Galata Tower, Taksim Square, the Blue Mosque, the Ayasofia Mosque, etc., are all located on the Europoean side in Karaköy. I also liked this side but it's more a touristic jungle (lots of interesting third wave coffees though). I was surprised by the reliability of the public transport. You always have two or three modal options : subway, train, tramway and buses. The frequency is very good and they are clean and safe to use. The tariffs are very low, I felt like a rich guy during my entire trip. I was renting an apartment on the last floor of a building in Pendik with a private terrace on the rooftop and a view of the Marmara Sea for less than 40 buck a day. Incredibly cheap. But I know that inflation hits Turkish people really hard so I made sure to give generious tips everywhere I went (especially in coffee shops where workers are usually young people who are struggling to survive in Turkey right now). I also discussed about the social atmosphere with the people I met in Istanbul. 100% of the people I met disliked Erdogan. And one old Turkish man owning a coffee shop in Istanbul told me, and I quote : "The economic situation will not improve as long as this bastard doesn't go away!". I also went to Ankara to visit the political institutions, the Atatürk Museum (I walked through a military base by mistake, but the soldier was very kind and friendly and he told me in an exceptionally good English from a Turkish perspective how to get to the museum).
A very good experience. No beaches, no fishing, only great encounters, some sociological observations about the society and eye contemplation of the environment around me.
..............👆🙏
This is a GIANT LIE. Before Erdogan Turkiye was not anywhere to be seen on the map. Erdogan put Turkiye on the map, and improved the living standards in the past 20 years about 2000%. That's just pure, unadulterated FACTS, unlike your lies.
@@DesertVox I'm fully aware that you're a troll, but what is the lie in what I said? I met people in Turkey who disliked Erdogan and inflation in Turkey is very high. What part of my statement do you think is a lie?
@@YanBrassard Your anecdotal evidence is a lie.
@@DesertVox Ok, if you say so. Lol
My mom isn't religious, but she loves to visit historic churches & she wold 100% go to Turkey to see the mosques, purely for the interest in art
Grandpa Cenk with the vacation slideshow.
I am pretty sure I am older than Cenk, but it did remind me of my parent's' vacation slide shows.
The oldest Christian churches are there.
No, they're in Syria etc. And if the current gov had their way they'd knock them down.
Cenk neatly avoids Turkey's Christian genocide and it's awful history of slavery.
Ok kids, gather around while papa shows us pics and videos from his vacation. Geesh I could just feel Anna rolling her eyes. 🙂
I went to Turkey in 2000 and I'm still dying to go back. Cenk is right, everything is beautiful in Turkey!
ehhhm - dont get stuck in the outskirts of Ankara.
Even Frankfurt cant compare to those soulless people-silos on endless grey streets.

And that the Us still arms and supports regimes who use and allow slavery, like saudi-arabia
Cenk is an american after all.
@@nilesbutler8638 you're sounding really stupid trying to deflect from Turkey stopping slavery in the 1930's by pointing to the US stopping slavery in 1865, 70yrs earlier.
Also, you're wrong. Portugal was the last Western nation to abolish slavery in 1869 and the US stopped slavery about the same time as everybody else.
Further, whilst the US did consciously stop it's own slavery Turkey and all other Islamic nations didn't. They were forced and pressured by the West, including the US. So you're truly ignorant.
Cenk was born and raised the Turkey and claims to be M.
@@nilesbutler8638 where did you get your awful education? To be so wrong about so many things is embarrassing. Did you get your education in Turkey?
Cenk, in your opinion is Turkey *very* safe for American tourists? I would love to go
The video with the salt-covered grouper on fire was gorgeous - not for anything ON the boat, but for the lights of the village in the background, right on the water … such a beautiful place to live, or visit, especially this time of year: anywhere there’s a lovely beach is where we all wanna be when it’s this ACCURSEDLY HOT in the land-locked states.
I lived in Bulgaria, and had a job working for ancient holistical cites such as Hagia Sofia, and also worked with the dervish in Konya. Turkey is amazing
there are some amazing caves in Cappadocia. I went to a music festival inside one - it was one of the coolest stages I've ever seen in my life. wonderful people!
It's just a massive salt encrusted bronzino. Common in Italy and Greece too. I've heard its excellent.
I have been to Turkey 3 times this year it’s an amazing country and beautiful 😍I’m ok with Americans not visiting there more for me to enjoy 😉
Anatolia was the center of Christiandom for 1,000 years. Hagia Sophia in Istanbul is the most awe-inspiring church in the World, and the Blue Mosque is even more beautiful.
i spent months in istanbul and loved it. LOVED IT. actually istanbul is a favorite destination for photographers. also cappadocia was mindblowing. the history of the caves is incredible. cave hotels? awesome. and of course the balloon rides. turkey is lit. hope to get back there soon. also you don't have to be interested in religion to have an appreciation for history. if you have any time to spend in turkey, you have to be EXTREMELY anti-religion to not at least visit the blue mosque, hagia sophia, topkapi palace, the basilica cistern, etc. those places are literally older the united states haha. that's incredible. relax ana.

Older than the USA is not saying much. The Hagia Sophia was built during the Roman Empire, the Anglo-Saxons who founded America hadn't even got to Britain when it was built.
turkey has amazing beaches and amazing mosques. it also has amazing mountains, amazing archeology, amazing food and amazing people. it's pretty amazing. i don't know why cenk insists on focusing only on the beaches and on this weird salt fish thing.
I loved my trip to Antalya a few years ago, really friendly people and lots a places to visit from natural attractions like Pamukkale to no end of Roman ruins.
Mosques don't bug me, but until Erdogan is gone no Turkey for me, Cenk!
Oh noooo what will the people do without you blessing the nation with your visit.
@@Xarriable Hopefully vote for a sane leader. They'll be missing me.
@@charlotteinnocent8752 Let's hope Erdogan will still let them vote.

First off to Peeking Turtle. Turks are among the friendliest most hospitable people on the planet and they are proud of their country. I visited Turkey. Absolutely loved the big mosques and the ancient buildings and the markets. Got out into the countryside to try local food and fruits, delicious, sailed on the
Aegean, Explored Constantinople. Fabulous history. Being Australian I made the pilgrimage to Gelibolu. Very emotional. The Turks really have done their best to look after it. They respect what happened there and importantly fill in whats missing from so many accounts , what happened on the Turkish side. Australians are familiar with the story of Simpson and his donkey, a stretcher bearer who carried wounded from the front lines and was awarded the Victoria Cross for his courage. There is a similar story of a Turk who in a real act of courage and compassion responded to the cries of a wounded Australian in no-mans land. He improvised a white flag and walked out in the face of the guns, picked up the wounded soldier and carried him back to the Australian lines then returned to his own trenches unharmed. In all that needless carnage and slaughter there were amazing acts of humanity and compassion.There is so much of Turkey I didn't see and I would go back in a heartbeat.

@@josm1481 You clearly don't pay attention to Cenk. He doesn't promote any religion. He doesn't hold any religion in high regard. As for slavery, it is sadly alive and well today with women and young girls being sold into sexual slavery in that bastion of freedumb and dumbocracy, the Unenlightened States of America.
I go for the people, beaches, ruins, and food.
Not for the history of genocide and slavery?
@@josm1481 No, I live in the present. Past times are hideous in many places, especially in The USA.
@@garlicbreathandfarts the US was not as hideous as Turkey, that's for sure.
Even though the Turkish born Cenk will pretend otherwise. Indeed, it's why the likes of Cenk like to point and highlight the US, because the history of their own people are worse.
Turkey was committing genocide against Christian groups into the 1920's and stopped slavery in the 1930's.
Even if it can call what the US did to the native Americans as genocide, and it certainly doesn't comply by accepted definitions, it stopped in the 1880's and of course slavery finished in 1865.
@@garlicbreathandfarts and when I say Turkey was committing genocide into the 1920's that's by the dictionary definition of genocide. They were going to whole towns of Christians and slaughtering them and also letting them starve to death.
@@josm1481 your opinion is respected.
Our water in Kenosha is so disgusting. It’s so green. The water is so polluted. Over there, the water looks nice.
Antalya is gorgeous.
That looked so good Cenk. I’ve seen this kind of cooking about 25 years ago! meat cooked in salt. Then they break it up, releasing the meat inside. It looks amazing!!
What attracted me to Turkey were the people, the food, the culture, the music, the history, ruins, the Aegean beaches, the palaces and yes the mosques and churches. Specifically, blue mosque and Hagia Sophia, which used to be a Byzantine church. I guess I’m a well rounded tourist with varied interests…lol. I hope to go back to Turkey one day.
Go to Greece it's better..

Great information!
Turkey has a number of ancient underground cities you could visit and the city of Troy as in the 2004 movie is in Turkey.
Turkey is one place I should have visited while in Europe. Dang!
Id Love to go to Turkey!
I am not religious at all but when you go to Turkey you should visit some of the old mosques, churches, etc. They are something to behold.
My Favorite Show on Netflix is Drilis Ertrugrul aka the Turkish game of Thrones it lays down all the History of the Turks in Anatolia from the Battle of Manzikert to the Foundation of the Ottomans who lasted for 600 years up until the year 1924.
And in 1924 the General Ataturk defeated all of his Enemies (British, French and mostly Greeks) and formed an Independent but Secular State most people don't know at this time much of the Middle East was carved up by the Europeans in the Sykes Picot Border Agreement.
And even much Larger Nations such as India and China were Slaves of Colonialism, but Turkey fought their way to Independence, they are a people worth Admiring.
Try to weed out the propaganda from the reality. When it comes to Turkish history, this can be very difficult.
@@passportshand5704 The Same can be said about Western and European History, there differnece here is the Western Revised Kind is accepted as Conventional Wisdom, while most people in the West are largely if not completely illiterate about the History of The East from Persians, Arabs, Turks, Indians and Chinese who also played a large role in Human Civilization, in fact the Concept of Human Rights itself goes back to the Persian King Cyrus this was known as "The Cyrus Cylinder"
@@bearislandthuglife3463 I completely agree with you - the history of every country is shrouded in propaganda and it can get very difficult to figure out what is real (if that is even possible). Today, turn on the tv in any country or speak with a local on the street and most of what is said, probably is not real. After living in Turkey for a couple of years, I really had a crash course in propaganda, it made me spot it much easier in other countries. I am not trying to speak against Turkey, I love the country and cherish the time I spent there. I am speaking to the history as told.
They need to steal Nebraska's tourism slogan: Turkey. Honestly it's not for everyone.
Ana is right, not the best videos and photos. Not to mention that they were vertically recorded. As a youtuber Cenk should know it better.
The screaming/hooting in the mic during the fish vid killed my ears. Dam.
I'm from Hawaii and I'm genuinely interested in the Mosques. The tile work and geometry is fantastic.
Agreed. I hope to visit Iran some day. The mosques in Isfahan and Shiraz have some exquisite craftsmanship.
Indeed. Our Legacy Ottoman maked State-Of-Art Mosques All over Turkey Because Worshippers can be do their Worship with Calm and Relaxed mind.
@@shomitsenguptaIran Mosques are Good too. Indonesians are also Worthy too see.
Been to Turkey twice and it's great. Love Cenk showing us his vacation pics 😊
Do you only take photos in portrait mode? There's a reason the other orientation is called "landscape."
LOL. that's true!
I don't believe I've ever viewed advertisements for Turkish tourism.
A very entertaining video that thanks
Years ago I went on a trip to visit the 7 churches mentioned in Revelation. Amazing historical sites, especially when we visited the Roman ruins at Pamukkale (sp?). You could actually swim through them ❤️
when i was deployed to Incirlik AB in 2002, me and bunch of my navy buddies in my squadron took a day trip to Adana. We had a tour guide actually take us (drove like a bat out of hell LOL) to the mosque there. It was huge and BEAUTIFUL. We were allowed inside (no shoes obviously) and we were allowed to take pictures (no flash photography). It was very welcoming, no weirdness because of 9/11... yet. We wound up driving back to base, having a nice Turkish dinner (this place called Moonlight Cafe that served this tava stew-type dish) and we had a good ol' time that weekend. That's it. That's the story. Day trip to the mosque in Adana and went back to base.
Are you kidding! The Aegean is GORGEOUS; so transparent that one can clearly see schools of fish all through. And, I’m originally from a Caribbean country, so I know my bodies of water😉.
My son in law is Turkish and the family travels to Turkey once a year, so I’ve seen a bit, by now. Istanbul is a fascinating place. I’ve yet to go to Anatolia, which is a must see , as is the recently discovered ancient temple of Göbekli Tepe, which is older than the Egyptian pyramids or Stonehenge.
Göbekli Tepe: Not only what you say, but it is also associated with the beginning of the agricultural revolution in and around Europe. (There were roughly parallel ones in South America and in East Asia.) In other words, this is where the original European farmers came from. Eastern Turkey together with nearby Mesopotamia is where the Indo-European languages and much of today's European culture originally came from. The first wave was agriculture and cultivated plants spreading from the region around Göbekli Tepe (which is the one place where the wild ancestors of wheat, barley etc. grow); the second wave was the Indo-European pastoral culture spreading from a less clearly identifiable nearby region.
All of this is no wonder because we are talking about the time at the end of the last Ice Age, when the ice sheet covering Europe hadn't completely receded yet. That's how old Göbekli Tepe is. It's from around the time when the Thames and the Rhine still became a single river, east of which you could walk from Germany to England over dry land (hunting mammoths).
@@johaquila fascinating history! Thank you!
Can’t believe Cenk found a way to basically share his holiday photos as a TYT item. He’s like that neighbour where you simply HAVE to come to their house to watch the 300 slides slideshow. Also the best beaches Cenk? Not one of the best, no, the BEST beaches! Like Fiji and Mauritius & the Seychelles and Phuket in Thailand and a bunch of other places want to have a word! 🤨🙄

Cenk hould head over to the eastern side where Camlihemsin is. Beautiful mountains and waterfalls
turkey does have good food, i give them that. In fact, we adopted alot of turkish food in the balkans from back when we were part of the ottoman empire
Hagya Sofia is Cool, Efesos is stunning, but sailing in Turkey beats it all. I once got to snorkel at an underground amfitheatre. I also found an awesome underwater cave, with a cavern inside.
I was thinking the same thing, but totally cracked up when Anna told Cenk how unappetizing the video was. Without the explanation, there was no way to know it had flavor.
Okay so, just want to say even though all the news and stuff you cover is far more urgent and probably more popular on the youtube business side of things
I really appreciate fun segments and stories like this. We need some of this to balance the bad.
I lived there for a year in Sinop on the Black Sea. The people were wonderful, but they had some issues when it came to health care, there were times when the base would provide preliminary health care to someone before they were airlifted to Incirlik (sp?). And riding on the roads was literally taking one's life in their hand as. Drivers were literally cutting corners even if it meant going into the oncoming lane. This was 40nyears ago though, I'm sure a lot has changed since then.
I saw a different tourism ad for Turkey and my big criticism was that all the people shown in the ad were tourist. Not even one local.
It’s cute Cenk but where were the cafes and places to grab coffee around those ruins baby, tour Turkish tourism agency needs a little work unless you’re driving us around personally 😎😜 ☕️
very good point
Ive been to Turkey on holiday 4 times and I love it! It's got it all- beautiful beaches, mountains, forests, cities,and villages. The food is amazing, the people are friendly and will talk for ages to you and help you out if you have a problem. It's history goes so far back and is so interesting. I went along to please a friend and fell in love with the country.
I'm a history buff so the ancient ruins are very cool. Thanks for sharing Cenk.
Take me to the history of country.. I love to learn about the culture, the history, and the food
Now I want an Ana does Armenia travel report!
That would be cool
I agree. Great idea!
How about "Come enjoy our taffy!" That should pull in some tourists. Everybody loves taffy. Just don't watch "Midnight Express" before you book your trip. Trust me on this.
And leave your drugs at home. That was a great movie and story BTW.

Turkey is my list to visit maybe even settle there when I retire. I am not Turkish but love the area
I totally disagree with Cenk. If I saw those beach pics I would not be enticed at all. In fact the reason I went to Turkey was because I wanted to see the Hagia Sophia. I was also very much looking forward to the food and I was not disappointed. Beaches on the other hand…eh whatevs.
Well Istanbul is not known for it's beaches, beaches in the Agean coast are like straight outa Maldives.
I'm right with yah. Mosques, churches, grand bazaars, palaces, ruins, yes. Beaches, eh. And Turkey has amazing foods.
You don't tell me you went to beaches in Istanbul. LMFO. You should go to egean part of Turkey, or Antalya.
You should show Kalkan
The pics look amazing. I didn't know that they had that. I thought it was more like the Baltic in Europe Poland side. Looks like a CT ocean.. not dirty , but not the clearest at all..
I find it strange how the American media have totally forgotten about the plight of the Kurdish people since tRump abandoned them to their fate at the hands of the ruthless Turkish military.
if black people would turn BLM movement into a movement trying to establish a black nation cleansed of whites, and start te rro rist attacks to realize it, would those same don key americans call it the plight of black people? Or would they start advocating to deport those extremists to africa? Well?!
Not to mention the irony of american using words like ruthless military. You do know theres reports regarding american military torturing locals in the middle east for fun? Killing 1M civilians in Iraq alone??? You people disgust me, your head is so far up your own stinker you smell nothing but s h i t.

Turkey also has one of the world's most
Rapidly expanding public transit networks in the world. The rate of expansion of their transit network is as impressive as China or India. There are new connections being built between the European and Asian sides of Istanbul, making the cities two airports better connected to the main centre of the city.
Turkey has amazing mass transit. Ferries go back and forth from the European side to the Asian in Istanbul every 20 minutes, and it costs less than a dollar.
I HAVE to visit the temple of Artemis when I visit Istanbul
Merhaba arkadaş
Ever since I saw the film Midnight Express I've wanted to go to Turkey.
cenk is ready to pounce when they were taking that fish out of the salt. just look at him slathering in the background. lolol
But, what about a Mosque on a beach? LOL! Sorry, I just couldn't resist!
I almost booked 2 weeks trip to Turkey for November. Some reasons I feel it isn’t safe to travel alone there.
It's is safe as any touristic place.
As a history buff I know Turkey has alot of ancient history sites but even being on the Mediterranean beaches and water like that never came to mind.
I love the country Turkey 🇹🇷 the Turks are the nicest people I’ve ever met in the world. My favourite ever holidays were in Turkey. They have amazing water parks
When Cenk asked what the fish were, my first thought was bait. Hope you didn't throw your back out reeling those in. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Egypt has more ruins but i love turkey more for their hospitality
I love Anna's hate disguised as "honesty"
When you’re from the Caribbean living and traveling in Europe but love vacations in Turkey that says a lot about a country. More than everything wonderful is the people. They go that extra mile to make you feel welcome and at home. Guess where my next vacation destination will be?
I have met some turks who live in the interior and they don't share Cenk's enthusiasm. There is more to life than beaches. Ask any kurd.
The Turkish ruin of Göbekli Tepe is actually one of the three most interesting archaeological sites in the world. The others being Machu Picchu in Peru, and Nan Madol in Micronesia.
Angkor Wat
@@jujutrini8412 Yes, but how old is that, compared to the others? I also wonder about the age of the Egyptian pyramids. Do we actually know...
If you’re in TV you should know better than taking vertical photos. Beautiful locations though
if you want to learn about a famous mosque, read a book, watch a documentary. When you'Re there in person, it's very hit and miss what kind of tour you will get.
Do you have any comment as to whether we should now call it Türkiye or just keep calling it Turkey in English?
ahahah
@@tabularasa1724 Ok, fine, I'll just refer to the country as GobbleGobbleGobble. I'm sure the Turks would just love that!
Turkiye is fine
As an Turkish Person, Our Govrement was Applied to UN to Change Country's "Offical" Name on "Türkiye". Now we Dont mind whathever someone calls Türkiye or Turkey. (As Long As Dont be in racist remarks ofc.) I Prefer Turkish Because in my view its Sound like a Good Brand that more suitable for Tourism.
Some says UK some says England
Hey Cenk & Anna,
I guess the ancient history and ancient architecture is obviously very interesting. Turkish food looks delicious
Cenk that looks like a fun dinner party with a seasoned fish is scrumptious.
I have to try me some Turkish fish--Mediterranean people in ads would be good idea-WOW a Puffer fish is so toxic, only Japanese trained in Puffer fish is safe to eat.
It's now officially business travel!! Good job!
✌️😁
I wanna try that fish!
