Man on the moon?

Another night bus! This time it was moving down the roads towards Goreme, Cappadocia. Hard time sleaping when they turn the lights on every hour or so, but I really do appreciate the great systems of buses running all around Turkey. Of course I would prefer trains, but when that system is not very well developed it's much better with hell of a lot of buses than a situation where everyone is going in their own cars. And the prices are affordable aswell, at least for me.

One day in Cappadocia, and that was just what I needed. Get out of the busy towns and just enjoying the countryside for a while. It's still kind of busy with a lot of tourists doing around with tour buses, but nothing compared to Istanbul or Antalya. I realize that I've been in big town for close to the whole of my trip so far. There's a lot of things to see and do, aswell as more new people I can talk to, but sometimes you just need that relaxing atmosphere that only smaller town and the countryside can provide.

I did a stupid thing today. Something that everyone says "No, please don't do it" about, but I had to. I rented a Scooter and drove around these magical landscape for some six hours. Bought some olives here, some nuts there and ended up on a cliff with a goo book for two hours during the sunset. A really good day so far. The last thing the guy who I rented the bike from said to me made me a bit scared though: "...and drive carefully, there's no insurance!"

Well, at times, it can even be enjoyable to be crazy!


Soon about to head towards Syria. I like it! Coming up, coming up!
