Turkey


On the edge of the Islamic world and on the edge of entering the European Union with Atatürk in the middle, Turkey is a culture cocktail of east and west.

Splattered with mosques, trendy shops and restaurants and a handful of modern beach resorts, you can dance the night away in a fashionable club and then smoke a traditional waterpipe and visit a mosque or many and lounge on a sun soaked beach and visit a sprawling bazar throughout the day.

Turkey is fun, fashion. prayer and struggle with balance between democracy and old fashioned ideals.
