In November 2024 I joined Michael Chinnici's Six Senses Experiences to "experience" Türkiye in three of its amazing areas:  Istanbul, Cappadocia, and the area around Izmir (including Ephesus).  It was a delightful trip with only 5 participants (including Michael and Merve, our leaders). I flew British Air out of Nashville to London and then on to Istanbul after visiting family outside London.  The trip included a hot air balloon ride in Cappadocia, cooking classes in all three locations, art lessons in marbling, attendance at a "Whirling Dervish" ceremony, a 4-hour food tasting tour, etc.  What a marvelous experience!  Enjoy the trip via my photos.
