My earliest memories of adventure reach back to my knobbly kneed five year old self exploring on a hobby horse. They were foremost in my mind when I made another discovery – the ruins of Alexandria Troas Turkey. Leaving CANAKKALE. Overlooking the Dardanelles. The guinea grass grew tall in the abandoned land on the suburb’s …

35 minutes from Geyikli, below the Dardanelles on the west Coast of Turkey, lies Bozcaada Island – literally the Barren Island. We had visited Cunda Island 130km to the south the previous day, but being connected via causeway to the mainland it lacked true Island status. Bozcaada on the other hand stood alone, approachable only by ferry …

We were leaving Ani and I wasn’t sure that I wanted to. Just one last photo to take – the one of the huge Turkish Flag that flew proudly at the entrance. Maybe we could hire a tent and camp there? It didn’t seem like anyone would mind. Just another Travel Daydream flitting …

If the ruins of Ani in Eastern Turkey were any less spectacular, the landscape would steal the show. Only nature could provide such a theatrical backdrop. This photo of the Ani Cathedral is one of my favourite photos of the ruins of Ani Turkey and there are more below. The grasses inside the walls of …
