Johannesburg - The holiday season has kicked off, and South African celebs are making the most of it, using this time to explore the world.
Aside from Jo-Ann Strauss' French Alps getaway, former Top Billing presenter Michael Mol captured a few epic pics from his time in the beautiful city of Istanbul, Turkey.
The scenic city lies between Europe and Asia in the Bosphorus Strait. Michael described his stay as both "awesome" and "memorable", and judging from his snaps, we can see why.
A guest of Turkish Airlines, the star said: "I left a part of me in Istanbul - it's a chaotic, magnificent city filled with warm, friendly, beautiful people... and the odd salesman!"
