Lena Erdil and Kai Steimer switch plans with the caprice of the Sinop wind on a trip that takes them out of Istanbul and onto the Black Sea…
With its official count of 15 million inhabitants, Istanbul is a city connecting two continents physically and bridging East and West in many other ways. Its many mosques and minarets bloom majestically out of a sea of modern skyscrapers, while thrums of people from countless different backgrounds bustle through busy streets. The local ‘trash boy’ collects all the trash he can sell on out of bins on the street guarded by gangs of stray cats, while the modern women in her power suit and perfect blow-dry gets into her Range Rover and drives off to work. The retired high school teacher flicks his fishing lure from one of the many bridges crossing the Bosphorus, while the inescapable twenty-something hipsters fill the many third-wave coffee shops.

Paddle Science #18 - The Body Fortress. Boosting Immunity
At this time of year, the rate of infection for colds and flu normally tends to slow down as we enter warmer, springtime months.

Infection rates, mortality rates and prognostic data are changing daily at the moment. As a new virus none of us have previously been exposed to it, meaning that currently, we have no immunity to it. Itâs only through being infected by a virus that our bodies are able to make the right antibodies to not only enable us to recover but to also help protect us from any recurrent and future infection from it. If youâre keen to stay well and keep getting out on your SUP board this spring, then focussing on boosting your immune system is a positive step to take.
