Thanks Türkiye, its been real

We’ve spent the days since our trip to Ephesus just chilling by the pool, having our ears blasted with Turkish EDM at the beach, and catching up on homework.

We managed to sneak in a third Wonder of the World with the Mausoleum of Halicarnassus ✅🏛️ and a little shopping along the way as well.

Turns out today is actually Victory Day for the Turkish people with a national holiday, tons of Turkish flags everywhere, and possibly celebrations in town (the tourism staff at the mausoleum weren’t sure… 😳). Lucky we had figured that out else we would have been even more surprised by the show that was put on at the hotel that night!

Türkiye has been great. So much to see and really lovely people. Such a big country though - we really only seen a tiny bit despite the month here!

Off to Dubai for tomorrow - time to practice saying hello and thank you on another language again!!Read more
