  • After the Russian F1 Grand Prix I headed to Istanbul and spent a week in the heart of the city spending 2 nights dining at one of Salt Bae's epic restaurants. You'll love watching the goings-on as much as I loved the meal.

    The Uber theory is true. I tried it half a year ago and the difference is a few dollars. But Uber is not only battery dependent but also event dependent! When Switzerland played Spain in the European Championship, I wanted to take an Uber home for about 4 minutes (just before the game started). The ride would have cost me 40 dollars...
