During the holiday season Craig and Linda are taking a short break and handing the reins over to some fellow podcasters. This week Chris Christensen from the Amateur Traveler talks about Istanbul: where to stay, what to do and what to eat whilst there. A fitting topic since St Nicholas is himself a native of Turkey; not sure when he moved north.

Chris mentions some previous episodes from his show, here are the links:

amateur traveler podcastSpending a fortnight in Turkey — Bursa and Istanbul — was a refreshing time for regular hosts Craig and Linda during 2007 and we plan to head back again twice in 2008; once in February and once for the great ANZAC pilgrimage to Gallipoli in April. We’re sure to be taking some of Chris’s not-in-the-guidebook suggestions this time around!

  1. You know, I’ve been watching his video podcasts and I had no idea he also had an audio podcast.

    I’ll have to subscribe to that.
