I’ll be visiting Istanbul for a very short trip and,
I arrive Saturday around noon and leave Sunday afternoon, so I basically have Saturday afternoon/evening and Sunday afternoon.
Since it’ll be August and probably very hot, I’d especially love suggestions for what to do between roughly 12–4 PM without spending too much time walking outside, anything that’s good for escaping the heat would be perfect.

A few questions:

1. If you only had this amount of time, what are the absolute must-sees?
2. Any good indoor/air-conditioned activities for 12–4 PM?
3. Any recommendations for good local restaurants around Aya Sofia
4. Would you stay mostly around Sultanahmet/Eminönü/Galata, or is it worth fitting in a ferry to Kadıköy/Asian side?

I’m more interested in experiencing Istanbul, eating really well, seeing the highlights and enjoying the atmosphere than rushing through a huge checklist.
Also, if there’s something particularly nice to do after sunset when it cools down, I’d love recommendations.
Thanks!

I started working remotely for a company a couple of months ago, and everything has been going really well. My boss has been very happy with my work, and I’ve been extremely motivated. Even before getting this job, I was working from around 8 am until 12 pm some days because I wanted this opportunity so badly.

But last week my boss went on holiday, and the moment I knew he wouldn’t be around, I somehow completely switched off. For about four days, I barely got anything done. It almost felt like I unofficially went on vacation with him. I don’t know what happened to me.

I worked Sunday and spent most of yesterday trying to catch up, but I’m still not 100% done. Now that he’s back, I feel extremely guilty and disappointed in myself.
Has anyone experienced this with remote work? How do you stay disciplined and on track when your boss is away without needing that external pressure?

I’m thinking of moving to Cagliari, so I’m wondering how is the life in general, especially during the winter months? What are the living costs for a single person, for renting an apartment and groceries? Noting luxury, just regular mid class living?

I just started working and designing with Revit, which one do you prefer Twinmotion or Enscape ?

I would like to visit these beautiful beaches but I don’t really want to stay there too long because it’s too crowded, so I was thinking of rending a paddle boarding and see some of the Calanques (Port Pin and de’en Vau). Can you ease share your experiences with paddle boarding around this area and how long did it take, where did you rent the sup. I am a solo traveler so I am not sure if I should do this alone

I haven’t dated anyone in 2 years and didn’t even have a crush on anyone at that time, I only kissed one guy and I didn’t even like him. The last thing I had with someone was a very hurtfull experience and I was just feeling very bad afterwards. Before that it took me also 2 years to really like someone. Yesterday I met a new guy at work and it happened. I imediately liked him. But not just casual crush. I got goosebumps after I left and my stomach started turning I couldn’t stop thinking of him. He wasn’t flirty but we had a meeting and kept staring at eachother and talking to eachother, he constantly was standing next to me. When he was explaining something it was like he was explaining it only to me. I haven’t felt this kind of feeling in maaany years (even before these 2) maybe 5-6 years…. He was very kind with everyone and he was very down to earth.
After that we saw eachother again in group setting and a coleague of mine (who I think noticed us staring at eachother) comented on his clothes and ask him why does he wears them, is it because his wife and children like them? And I was doing something else i wasn’t looking at them at that time but I was in the same room I just overheard this while grabing a coffe from the coffee machinge. I didn’t hear him say anything or saw his reaction. My world colapsed (very dramatic I know hahah), I felt almost heartbroken, which I know it’s crazy since I don’t know him at all. I don’t know if the guy who asked him knows him personaly or outside of work I have no idea. He didn’t have a ring on his finger (and where we come from married guys usualy do).
And now I don’t know how to find out if he really is married or not. There is no way that I will do something with him if he is, I will stop liking him and start avoiding him. But I will be extremly sad since I rarely like someone like this. He has so many things that I like in a guy… 😫😫😫😫
It was better not liking anyone. I hate this.

I just bought as a recommendation for my routine. But I am not sure if I should start using it. Summer is coming and I wanted to start with retinol and they recommended I start with this first since retinol is more harsh for the summer especially

The costumer service is shit and I can’t understand what should I do to get my physical card. I already have virtual one but I would like to switch to a physical one in the same currency and it won’t let me order one. Did anyone had this problem and solved it ?

I’m looking for coliving recommentations in Europe, places with good accomodation and good workspace. I would also love to hear about your personal experience if you’ve stayed in one, whether you would recomment it overall. I have never lived in this kind of space and I would love to try it.

After a long interview process today I started working at my new job, and I can’t believe I got the part because it’s everything I ever wanted. I got my first assignment, and while working today, I felt sick and lightheaded. I was shaking during the whole day being scared that they will hate the work that I do. I worked like scared rabbit it’s crazy. I feel so scared, I can’t stop thinking that they will hate me and fire me and realize that I am not worth it.
Help.
This was a very stressful day, I didn’t expect this. I should be excited and happy and relaxed, instead I am freaking out and almost having panic attac!

Hey digital nomads, can you recommend me some cool places for coworking in Lisbon, but also some cafes and restaurants that allow remote workers for longer hours. Where do you usually work outside of your apartments?

All my 20s I didn't have many opportunities to travel the world (1 am from Europe) and now finally I got a job that can allow me to travel anywhere. I am single and never really been in a real relationship that lasted more than 4 months, not because I've never wanted that, but it just didn't work out with anyone for different reasons.
Now finally, for the first time ever, I am at peace with my single life, I just got a great remote job and l am ready to travel. But everyone around me says that I should start a family. I see no prospects where I currently live, I think I've met everyone here, so finding a partner here seems unrealistic. And the main thing is I reeeeeeaaalllyy want to travel the world. But at the same time I feel conflicted and afraid that I should settle somewhere and with someone. I do eventually want to have a family of my own, and I am afraid that that may not happen if I do my own thing right now.

I’m thinking of buying Lumea, but I am not that hairy in general. Does it work on lighter and thinner hair? Also what difference does it make if i buy the newer versions of Lumea vs the older ones? What does it mean 250 000 flashes ? And also I see that the Lumea Bri 949/00 has a trimmer

In my friends group there is this guy, let's call him A and this girl J. They were best friends and recently started hooking up. They were keeping it a secret but I found this out through my best friend. I really liked A even though he liked J. One night we were hanging in my friends aparpment, A&J, me and my friend. We got drunk, A&J were flirting, but | also started flirting with him as well. Long story short me and A ended up in the bathroom hooking up while J was in the other room with my friend and she walked in on us, didn't even say anything and then just left the apartment without saying bye to anyone. I didn't feel bad or guilty. He went to her to apologize and few weeks latter they hooked up again after he was trying to work things out.
But he was also hooking up with me. So now after almost a year we are getting married, he is the love of my life. She’s out of our lives, whenever we see her he tries to talk to her but she won’t even look at him.

We decided to move on from this since our love is so strong. I’ve never been so in love neither has he. Our families love eachother and I can’t wait to start a new chapter. I don’t feel bad at all about any of these. The bigger picture is much more important.
