    @ Cuckoo:

    You may also win $50 too :)

  3. Makes me wish I’d been to more of these cities. Ah, but that will change soon enough.

    Fun contest. ;-)

    @ Byteful:

    It’s a nice range of cities and I’ve added some to my own future list. Where are you headed next?

  5. mom says:

    I love the contests on your site!

  6. Anil P. says:

    @ mom:

    Thanks, I’m glad you’re enjoying them :) This one is fun and am excited to see how it ends..

  7. mom says:

    After being there so many times Istanbul still surprises me with its striking beauty. You feel like taking a picture of every corner. Just google for some Istanbul images and you’ll see what I mean.

  8. mom says:

    I feel at home in London and love San Fransisco. However I believe everyone should see Istanbul at one time or another. This contest made me put some other cities on my list of “to visit”.

  9. Anil P. says:

    @ mom:

    Istanbul is simply endless, but I’ve never been to Sydney so can’t compare firsthand. It’s been a worth city for the contest and still going strong. What are some of the cities you added to your list to visit?
