EUROPE TRIP PT2

The third day of the trip we were going to spend it on Prince's Islands. Before, catching the ferry out to the islands we feed ourselves a very big Turkisk breakfast to kick start our day. The coffee was very good too to our surprise a lot of places we went to served us Turkish coffee which very different what I normally have in Melbourne.

The Princes’ Islands are a cluster of 9 islands southeast of Istanbul in the Sea of Marmara. We spent most of our time at the largest sland, Buyukada. We hired a bike and cycled around the island. I think it may be the most beautiful street I've ever been on. It was so grand and serene. It was like a dream.

We ferried our way back to the Asian side of Istanbul. We walked along the main street of shops and made our way back to our hotel.

Next day, we flew to Capppadocia where we stayed in a Cave Hotel called Anatolian House Caves Hotel which had its own pool. When we first arrived we chilled by the pool and had some of their late buffet breakfast. In the afternoon, I booked us an ATV tour to see the sunset. The ATV felt like an adventure across the desert. It was very dusty and the sunset was very pretty. The ATV tour allowed us to drive our own vehicle I wasn't very good at it so I sat behind Matt. I highly recommend get a mask for the dusty. We stopped at a few different spots to admire the natural landscape : Rose and Red Valleys. They all look very similar. We had dinner at our hotel.

Early morning, we woke up to do the hot airballon experience. The experience picked us up at the hotel 4am. I was quite scared of the hot air balloon. I was worried it would be unsafe, let's YOLO! It was very impressive to see the hot air balloon rise in front of you. It was so big. There were around 20 people in our hot air ballon. The hot air balloon moved very slowly , floating. You didn't even realise you were rising because it was so smooth. There were hardly any wind and everyone was silent. The views were breathtaking and speechless I felt so at peace and happy. Nothing really mattered but the present moment I felt so alive. So much beauty to absorbed! It was my favourite experience. The pilot was so experienced that she lowered the balloon to the city centre and floated and turned the hot air balloon 360 and she landed on the trailer. The experience finished with a glass of champagne and a cerfticate that I fly in a hot air balloon. The tour drove us back at the hotel. We rested for a few hours before we went on our next tour.

Our next tour was the red tour which started at 9.30am like the other tour it came and picked us up. The tour stopped a number of spots and the tour guide was very engaging : Uchisar Castle, Goreme National Park, Love Valley, Fairy Chimneys, Avanos and Devrent Valley. While I was at the Love Valley there was arcade of stalls selling souvenirs I bought my happy apple made of white onyx and injected my happiness into it. I was very happy at that very moment. I wanted to remember with a physical object.

The next morning I requested the hotel to organise breakfast on one of their roof tops so we can watch the sunrise and the hot airballoons. It was one of my favourite activity. The food was alright it was more for the view. After the breakfast we made our way to the airport where we fly to Istabul then to Athens and final stop Santorini.

Did you hear that?....Just kidding. 😜 I’m looking over my shoulder in hopes that I would look less like a dweeb in this photo than I did in the one where I looked directly at the camera. Literally looking at nothing. 🙈 Ah, Instagram vs Reality. - - http://liketk.it/2yyYt #liketkit @liketoknow.it #LTKunder100 #LTKunder50 #LTKstyletip #LTKshoecrush #LTKsalealert #LTKfit #LTKholidaystyle #LTKholidaygiftguide #LTKholidaywishlist #modcloth #mymodcloth #modclothsquad #newgoremetour #capppadocia #turkey #uniladadventure #gltlove #femmetravel #travel #travelgram #worldnomads #selimemonastery #orbitzpic #tlpicks #sheisnotlost #instagramvsreality #discoverglobe #travelholic (at Selime Monastery, Cappadocia) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bqz2jwlBJHC/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=cpo7yq7pv3fd

How many nights/days would you reccomend staying in Istanbul and Cappadoccia. I was thinking 2 nights 3 days Cappadoccia???? not sure about Istanbul

depends how much time you have... 3 full days in istanbul is enough but 4 would be better and yeah you’ll want 2 morning minimum in capppadocia because sunrise is WHERE ITS AT. hot air ballooning and watching the balloons from a picnic rug at sunrise is as good as it gets....

Pagi itu kami sedang duduk-duduk di lobby hotel sambil sibuk masing-masing memegang smartphone, mumpung lagi ada koneksi wifi. Setelah sepuluh menit berlalu, kami mulai gelisah. Seharusnya kami sudah dijemput oleh perwakilan dari travel agen yang sudah kami pesan sebelumnya untuk mengikuti Tour Capppadocia. Akhirnya kami meminta bantuan mas resepsionis yang sedang mengobrol dengan seorang pria di…
