Organizing the trip, Cappadocia has always seemed to me not so interesting, nor a dream destination, perhaps because it is located in neighboring Turkey and I have never had the desire and purpose of visiting it. That's why I was surprised by myself when my 27th birthday approached and suddenly I decided that I wanted to celebrate it in Cappadocia - it was certainly shaping up to be a different experience. Travel dates were April 25-30, 2017. Just 3 weeks before the trip I booked through Booking.com Nights at Antique House as…

Travelogue: Summer holiday in Kusadasi The whole trip started from an offer I found on a collective shopping site. The offer was for 7 nights with breakfast and dinner included at a price of BGN 160 per person. The price was more than stunning and we decided now is the time to visit this popular Turkish resort. The dates were 25-31.05.2013. Simeon and I traveled with Simeon, our daughter Avi, who was then 2 and a half years old + my parents. We traveled in a gas car, having previously printed countless maps of our route to Kusadasi,...

Istanbul April 2-3, 2010 Idea on 2.04 at 1:00 p.m. I told Simeon that I wanted to go somewhere and that something unusual was being done to me. He suggested we go to Istanbul and I immediately agreed. Fast, short and accurate! 🙂 The car we were driving at the time was not in our name and we needed a power of attorney in English and Turkish to cross the border. That's why we took the car that is in our name, and we had given Simeon's parents to use it. We quickly organized the transport, loaded…

The hotel was located in the Blue Mosque area, in the Fatih district, right where the Eurasia tunnel begins (which runs under the Bosphorus) and near all kinds of shops, restaurants, grocers…
