Mui’s Getaway

September 17, 2023 in Turkey ⋅ ☀️ 84 °F

While I spent this week in İzmir with my family, Tuesday morning Mui hopped on a bus to Bodrum, a resort town in the Province of Muğla. He stopped 12 miles short of Bodrum, however. His actual destination was the Village of Boğaziçi, where his sister (Işıl) has a beach house.

Swimming and sunning; R&R-with-a-view from the terrace of the house; a couple of handyman projects; a drive to Bodrum for a bit of sightseeing; quiet family time with his sister. Before he knew it, the days and hours of the reunion visit had passed.

He returns to İzmir tomorrow.Read more
