    In my hometown of İstanbul the number of subways have grown like crazy. It’s beautiful to watch.

      Aren’t you guys struggling with a bunch of government corruption leading to skimping on earthquake safety?

        yes, and also building lots of new metro lines at the same time. I take the metro for destinations that I used to drive 5 years ago.

          It just makes me nervous. I’ve been in the subway for multiple earthquakes and it’s basically the worst feeling in the world.
