Abdi Çavuş Sokak, north Nicosia, Cyprus
Once upon a time this beautiful street of was full of old Nicosia's refined families with the beautiful houses, well-mannered kids, street sellers, doting grandmothers and neighbours that were one big family. It is heartbreaking that almost less than a handful of these families are left here today.
When kids, my parents used to take us to visit my mum's dear friend Özay teyze and her dear mother Emine nene whose gorgeous turunch majunu's (bitter oranges in syrup) aroma and taste are still with me to this day.
