Photo Dump of Turkey since I realized I never made any posts of that trip last month, details of locations below:

1: Duden Waterfall, located in Antalya, is a natural attraction where the Duden River cascades over cliffs and into the Mediterranean Sea.
-
2: Pamukkale is renowned for its stunning white travertine terraces formed by the mineral-rich thermal waters cascading down the hillside. Pamukkale is a UNESCO World Heritage site
-
3&4: This is at Land of Legends which is essentially a Turkish Disney Land and shopping mall all in one place. I personally thought it was better than Disney 🤷‍♂️
-
5: Like many third world countries, you can run into some horrible taxi drivers in Turkey. Uber also doesn’t operate there, although you can order taxis through the app (if you get lucky). However, these limo services are reliable and often times the same price or cheaper than regular taxis.
-
6: No idea where this was but there’s umbrellas.
-
7: Got invited to ride on some random boat when I was at the marina, that was a fun time!
-
8: This was taken by the old city, can we just appreciate how beautiful Turkey is for a moment? Like, WOW 😍
-
9: The ancient city of Hierapolis boasts a remarkably well-preserved Roman theater. This impressive ruin, with its grand marble seating and intricate stage architecture, offers a glimpse into the historical grandeur of Roman entertainment and architecture. This is also a UNESCO World Heritage Site!
-
10: This was at .tr , the resort that I stayed at. Have you ever been so hot that you just jumped into a pool with everything on? That’s exactly what happened here, the massive (literally infinity pool) was too tempting to pass.

Never thought I’d post a picture on IG in my pijamas but at least it’s the PJs. Have a bunch of pictures and videos of my first time flying in first class, might make a reel next week. In case I don’t, it’s a literal hotel room in the sky with a la carte dining and even 🍾; I highly recommend the experience.
