The gallery here documents the second half of my Cappadocia tours, and the final day of my holiday around Turkey. It was a bittersweet finale: the tour, of course, was fantastic, and while part of me was sad to leave my solo-nomad ways behind, another part of me was definitely ready to get back to … Continue reading
