Unexpectedly feeling emotional as I land here in Istanbul/Constantinopoli. Imagining the Great Exodus soon after WW1 ,my grandfather as a young boy had to move with his family and leave the family home/business/belongings/community and cross over to a different part of Greece during a depression. Viewing the Bosphorus River and imagining the long histor of trade and travel to the Silk Route eastward. Wow!
