Pukka Living is a free newsletter and website on life in Istanbul.

It features ‘unique’ stuff only known to the locals with a zest in life: hidden boutiques and indie shops; the best places for budget-busting extravaganza or bargain-basement trophies; our choice of hot new places and cool local hang-outs; where to find little-known designer shops; how to eat, shop and have fun in style while contributing to the local community.  We support an ethical lifestyle and believe that glamour doesn't always need to have bad consequences. 

Everyday you get one tidbit of information on trends, unique products and useful services with insiders’ tips on hundreds of secret possibilities in this stylish city and beyond; from the wonderful to the really weird.

What’s more, it’s interactive. Which means that it’s constantly updated with one or more entries everyday.  You can also contribute with your own new-finds or leave comments on existing ones.  So, if you’re a global shopper with an eye for the ‘pukka’, meaning ‘high quality’, ‘genuine’ and, (funny enough) ‘hungry’, click here on Today’s Pukka and feed your appetite…

PS. Nobody pays their way to get featured in Pukka Living.  It is strictly editorial with Ilgin Yorulmaz as the main editor.  Having worked as an advertising executive in Tokyo, she's been a freelance writer in London and Istanbul to titles like Hello!, and writes a monthly design column in Maison Francaise Turkish edition.
