It's insane in Istanbul. London is generally perceived by Londoners to be the centre of the universe, but in Istanbul people act like Istanbul is the whole of the universe. I can understand it given that all the money is running through it, but that's not going to last forever and at some point places like Izmir, Bursa and Trabzon need to get their turn. I think you did the absolute right thing getting out. I'm not sure I could live in Istanbul, but certainly anywhere on the coast or islands is always beautiful.
