Whoo hoo! My article for Askmen.com, the online men's magazine, about how to spend 3 days in Istanbul was published today. Sweeeet!
The magazine is geared towards men, so I had to imagine myself a 24-year-old single male with lots of time and cash on his hands. As it is, I am a 26-year old married female with very little time and cash on my hands. It was kind of a stretch.
You can read the whole article here. (Yes, I know that the tagline on a Google search says "Turkey's gorgeous capital city is a favorite destination for world travelers in-the-know." I have emailed my editor to ask her to delete "capital city.")
This gives me LOTS of ideas for other "3 Days in Istanbul" type pieces for all different kinds of audiences, such as....
Single women
Couples
Families and child-friendly
Gay/lesbian
Architecture buffs
Historians
Backpackers on the cheap
The opportunities are endless, really. And thus her freelance career was under way!
