Expect the unexpected, follow the lovers lost in this blog.

A blog to cater your mind,body,and soul as you drink Turkish Coffee. We are proud to present our new storyline called Cafe's search for his "Zahir". Everyday is a new day for the "Cafe" (from Istanbul) & his journey for "Zahir" (from Baku). Don't expect extraordinary drama from the narrator, me. Still, this is a drama (maybe real!), and have better impact on you than watching a soap opera. Guaranteed. There is genuine feelings within inspirational periods. Cross your fingers for this story to end with happy marriage :-) All rights are reserved.

EDIT (01 July 2009) - She is engaged with another man, and I finally made my marriage proposal bringing my family to Baku. The result: She stays engaged and will have her wedding, so called "toy", with that another man.

Rest in peace Ms. Zahir.

Looks like an exciting documentary about evil eye

Nazar Boncuğu / The Evil Eye Bead (VCD)Producer: Ali Akyüz
Year: 2005

Tulumba.com is selling a VCD called The Evil Eye Bead:
"The Evil Eye Bead: Throughout the whole human history, in every culture and religion, the eye figure has been considered as a powerful talisman to defy evil forces... We find this figure in Jewish, Christian and Muslim cultures as well as Buddhist and Hindu societies. This common tradition finds a new identity in the 3000 years old glass craftsmanship of Anatolia. A glass master combines the power the eye figure with the power of the fire and creates a new talisman: The evil eye bead..Since then the people have been attaching this bead to everything they wished to protect from evil. From the new-born babies to their horses or even to the doors of their homes...This tradition still lives in Anatolia. The glimmering evil eye beads that are hand made with ancient methods by a very few glass masters, are distributed from Anatolia to the whole world. This documentary tells the colourful story of the evil eye bead and the last glass masters of this great tradition."
