Ok, I’ll be honest, the boys had a LOT to write about. They’d just experienced their first Turkish bath and were still all shiny clean when we stumbled across this little local café.
The owner didn’t speak English, we didn’t speak Turkish, but he immediately brought out ice creams for the boys and pointed at a few things on the menu that we should try. We nodded, he went off to cook, his kid came out, two cats came to investigate us a bit more, and the boys got stuck into their Zwela journals while we sipped on tea.
One of those completely unexpected, lovely little travel moments that you couldn’t have planned if you tried. And honestly, those are often the moments you remember most.
