Ankara, Turkey
I flew from Moscow to Istanbul and arrived around 10 pm, until my ride picked me up at 11 pm and we headed straight to the bus station for a one-way ticket to Ankara (I was planning to start an internship program in Digital Media the next morning) The ride was just like any long…
Moscow, Russia
After what happened to my passport (I got it “New” when I went on my trips to Jordan and Palestine early 2015) and spilling juice on it in Japan that caused me to get detained in China and run around between embassies. I had to go back to New York City for one day before…
Shanghai, China
After I struggled so much with my documents (since what happened to my passport) I had to see the Palestinian consulate in Beijing, because I was heading to Shanghai from Beijing via air. I was like mad women running everywhere; from one place to another, asking for help everywhere/from everyone, I feel that can help…

Arashiyama, Japan
We went hiking and discovering more of the beautiful Kyoto. Arshiyama Bamboo Grove was beyond beautiful, it is something you can never see back home. You kinda lose sight in which country you are in after visiting it. It is a very big area, that I just was not able to finish it, I needed…
Kyoto, Japan
From Mount Koya, we made our way down to Kyoto. Kyoto is sort of the cultural center of Japan, brimming with Buddhist temples, Shinto shrines, and World Heritage sites.

Osaka, Japan
Osaka is famous for its friendly locals and hearty traditional cuisine. I was amazed how nice people were, especially during customs.
