You can’t help who you fall in love with, as love works in mysterious ways. Sometimes, two people from two completely different countries fall in love and start a life together.

Living In Turkey

Russian blogger Svetlana experienced just this. Self-titled “the wife of a Turkish Sultan,” she has blogged and Instagrammed life as a Russian woman living in Turkey, revealing what it’s exactly like.
