Hi friends. Time flies so fast in my #TheLongestTrip! More than six months have passed since I left my native home on March 1 because of the war in Ukraine...
Having visited six countries and more than twenty cities during this time, can I safely call myself a resident of the planet Earth?
Nostalgia for my native land lives in my heart, but after coming back to Turkey, I feel like home here :)
During this time, I realized that every country I visited remained in the corner of my soul... But for some reason, Turkey became like a second home to me! After all, it was in Turkey that I spent the most time... I experienced the greatest euphoria from the fact that I and my children escaped from this terrible war that continues in Ukraine...
I'm trying to keep up with telling you about every exciting place I'm exploring on my trip... It's Wednesday again and #wednesdaywalk challenge, initiated by @tattoodjay :)
I had three walks to the beautiful beaches of Cesme, where I now live, for one day, thanks to my third rental car!
Every time I force myself to get behind the wheel of a new car (because this way I go beyond my comfort zone :) ), in a new unfamiliar city, in order to continue developing my driving skills.
In fact, I really like to drive, I am really happy behind the wheel! But the first time in a new city is always scary :)
So we dared and took the car for two days. It was a single automatic machine, too big at first glance for the old town of Cesme with its narrow and steep streets! Renault, diesel. She looked quite shabby, and there was a strange sound when she started, like a jet plane)))
We decided to go to several beaches at once, which were nearby, at a distance of 12 km from Cesme.
We visited the Delikli Koy first.
On the way, we stopped at a small shop selling melons and watermelons. We decided to buy 🍉 for the first time in September, but we don't really understand how to choose and it was tasteless :(
This place captivated us with the amazing beauty of its snow-white sand rocks, which formed amazing hills and depressions.
On this day, there was a crazy wind that prevented us from swimming in the sea, but we took many unique photos of this crazy element. People there organized a camping and there were many dogs, more than 10. They were peaceful and ran after us hoping to get food :)
There were surfers here. For surfers, this wind is truly a gift! But I don't like this sport. I love to swim in the warm sea, when my body feels the elements of nature.
The second place we visited that day was the so-called bay Güvercinlik Koyu
It was only a few km from the first beach, and there was a very steep road down to the sea, but we successfully overcame it on our tank (that's what we called our car)))
We looked at this amazingly beautiful bay from a height and decided that we will definitely visit it again when the weather is more favorable for swimming. For some reason, there were trees all around that looked like they had been burnt by the fires that often happen in this region due to the crazy winds! We recently saw helicopters fighting a fire in a pine forest!
And we drove on, enjoying our car ride. I don't know about you, but for me, driving while listening to beautiful stylish music is one of the best things to do!
And here is another beach, on the outskirts of the city. Here we found some interesting points that I want to share.
First of all, it is a fence - an aquarium near the house. Have you ever seen fish swimming in a giant aquarium outside? So enjoy :)
My Darinka saw a moray among other fish!
And there were new beautiful round-shaped high-rise buildings in this area by the sea that had roof gardens. This is really luxury accommodation.
This post is written about where I am now. But I'll be back to telling my travel story, sequentially describing all the places I changed in my #TheLongestTrip
Thank you for your support ❤️
Six countries? Wow.. I wish I could travel to other countries too.
The view is pretty btw 😊
I wish you to travel to other countries. It is extremely cool to see another culture, customs. Hear another language of people!
Beautiful photography, incredible videos and unsurpassable scenery. I am very sorry for what is happening in your country: wars are inexplicable and cruel. Your daughters are beautiful, young and deserve a better world. How nice that they can be away from the horror and see that the world has its beautiful side. The sea looks cold and the weather is freezing!!! Was it? I love the picture of your daughter prancing around. How wonderful the youth is. Greetings and take care
Yes you're right. On this day there was a strong wind that knocked me off my feet. It was warm enough, but it was impossible to approach the sea. Thanks for the compliment for my daughter :)
Мандрівка в казку продовжується?)))

По телефону не знайшла.( Знайдіть ви мене - я там просто tinochka - фото, як тут...
If you are still in Çeşme, I recommend you visiting Alaçatı where there are old Greek houses remains nearby narrow streets and wonderful beach Ilıca.
Alaçatı is just five mins away from Çeşme by car.
When I was in Cesme on June 9, I wrote the ancient village of Alacati on my list to visit! Thank you.
