🥇 Hiking to a Glacier in Alaska by @dtam

Meares Glacier is a beautiful, yet mysterious glacier at the head of Unakwik Inlet in Prince William Sound, Alaska. Unlike nearly all of the other glaciers around here, Meares glacier is advancing. It has steadily moved forward since it was first described in 1905. As it pushes a mound of earth in front of it, the glacier bulldozes through old growth forest, upending trees with abandon.

🥈 A Beautiful Day on the Bosphorus: Breakfast, Sea, and Istanbul Magic (Eng-tr) by @oneplanet

After coming back from Ankara, I had a wonderful day in Istanbul. I arrived home very late at night, almost after midnight, but the next morning I woke up at 6 a.m. because I had an event about Islamic economics. I was tired, of course, but I was also excited. Sometimes life becomes very busy, but when the day brings good people, new ideas, and beautiful places, tiredness slowly disappears.

🥉 Hidden in the Mountains of Crete: The Cave That Raised a God by @katerinaramm

I found myself deep in a very, very old cave. And guess what.
I felt its history in my veins. It was formed naturally within the limestone rocks of the Dikti mountain range through the slow action of water dissolving the limestone. The rock formation containing the cave dates from the Jurassic to Eocene periods, meaning the geological material is roughly 34–200 million years old.
