It was a very tiring trip from start to the end and I couldn’t find the chance to see the gems of Paris this time, with only one exception; Clignancourt Flea Market. Maybe I haven’t told you before, but people who know me are familiar with it, I love used and antique objects of any kind. Clignancourt, with its hundreds of antique shops is a real wonderland for people like me. Within a limited time, I tried to see as much as possible with my sister. It is such a huge area, we decided to come back again for a few days only to visit Clignancourt. It has so much to offer, any kind of  vintage and antique objects you can imagine…

 

So here are some photographs I took that day, I’m afraid these will have to do until next time.

güzeldim de galiba bunu nasıl söylesem:

eline sağlık Tanrım leyla çok güzel olmuş

Tanrım eline sağlık dünya da çok güzel olmuş

keşke biraz ölmesem.

A song I’m so happy to have remembered again.

You know I see London, I see Sam’s Town

Holds my hand and lets my hair down

Rolls that world right off my shoulder

I see London, I see Sam’s Town now

The Loner

” What am I in the eyes of most people — a nonentity, an eccentric, or an unpleasant person — somebody who has no position in society and will never have; in short, the lowest of the low. All right, then — even if that were absolutely true, then I should one day like to show by my work what such an eccentric, such a nobody, has in his heart.
That is my ambition, based less on resentment than on love in spite of everything, based more on a feeling of serenity than on passion.”

“Though I am often in the depths of misery, there is still calmness, pure harmony and music inside me.”

Vincent van Gogh

The National Library of Bosnia and Herzegovina, Sarajevo.

1.5 million volumes and over 155,000 rare books were completely destroyed in 1992, during the Siege of Sarajevo.

Photographs are from a couple of years ago… There was an installation about the massacre at the Library in ruins; a timber boat full of old shoes and a portrait of him looking right into your eyes… And it was all very very quiet…
