    Istanbul Aku Datang | Tips Kembara Di Istanbul Turki

    Dengan kemunculan filem terbaru lakonan pelakon jelita Lisa Surihani bertajuk “Istanbul Aku Datang” sedikit sebanyak pastinya akan menarik ramai rakyat Malaysia yang kaki travel untuk berkunjung ke sana, tetapi tanpa kehadiran filem tersebut, Istanbul dari dahulu lagi merupakan salah  satu lokasi pelancongan terkemuka di dunia.

    Kembara Fotografi | Istanbul Turkey

    © 2012 Wazari Wazir | Kembara Fotografi | Istanbul Turki | Turkey Saya pernah ke Istanbul pada tahun 2009, atas urusan kerja mengikuti Timbalan Perdana Menteri YAB Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin yang pada ketika itu menghadiri salah satu persidangan antarabangsa di sana.

    Travel Photography Tips | Have Some Patience

    © 2012 Wazari Wazir | Blue Mosque at Istanbul Turkey “The two hardest tests on the spiritual road are the patience to wait for the right moment and the courage not to be disappointed with what we encounter.”  – Paulo Coelho – Personally  I think Patience is what separates a travel photographer from a tourist.
