Turkey

La Turquie m’a accueillie avec intensité et authenticité. En novembre et décembre, hors saison, de l’effervescence d’Istanbul et des ruelles colorées de Balat aux paysages lunaires de la Cappadoce, puis des côtes d’Izmir à Fethiye jusqu’à Pamukkale et Antalya, j’ai exploré en solo le jour et partagé des moments précieux grâce au couchsurfing. Un pays d’une richesse humaine et visuelle, vibrant même dans la douceur hivernale.

Turkey welcomed me with intensity and authenticity. In November and December, off-season, from the vibrant streets of Istanbul and colorful Balat to the lunar landscapes of Cappadocia, then along the coast from Izmir through Fethiye to Pamukkale and Antalya, I explored solo by day and shared precious moments through couchsurfing. A country rich in human connection and visual beauty, still vibrant in the quiet of winter.
