We traveled for two hours into a small mountain village called Sirince. It was AMAZING.
The people were just like what 'Turkish village people' should look like. I could easily
live in this quaint little haven hidden among the mountains and olive trees.

Some streets in Izmir. 1:48pm

Every morning we go and buy fresh baked breads for breakfast, and we walk these
streets to get to the bakery.

To market. 11:17am

Hurrem and I having lunch

[. I am not as comfortable taking pictures of people here yet... I already stand out more than I would like,
being as I am tall, blue-eyed, have lighter hair, and am a girl... the camera just makes me that much more
visible. Haha, when people are already staring at you, it is hard to 'whip out' a hurkin' huge camera
to discretely take a picture of them... so... for now, you will have to simply accept my pictures of the city
center of Izmir, Turkey. Hopefully I will be able to capture some of the people and culture in the next few days .]
