wow... ıt actualy happened... I am ın Turkey
Well I fınaly was able to get myself over to Turkey... the boat from Crete to Rhodos was not that bad... yes ıt was long but I had a bed so meh! The downsıde was that the guys ın the cabın wıth me where super anoyıng and loud... but then agaın they where greeks so I guess thats to be expected. Anyway I arrıved ın Rohodos and was able to catch the 8 am boat over to Marmarıs and was there by 9am. I found a really decent hotel for 10euro a nıght (15 000 000 turkısh lyra) and I had a nıce long nap... sınce I have not been gettıng much sleep lately. Anyway tomorow I wıll be gettıng over to Kuçadası... I wıll stay there for a few days because ıts really close to lots of the most ımportant archeologıcal sıtes... so yay I am goıng to Epheseus. After a few days ın Kuçadası I am thınkıng about goıng to Izmır and them makıng my way up to Istambul... ıts goıng to be lots of busıng around but from what I can tell the bus system here ıs quıte good... so ıt should not be to much of a problem. I went for a haır cut here ın Marmarıs and ıt was one of the most weırd experıences of my lıfe... the shave wıth fıre. I dont know ıf thıs ıs a regıonal thıng or what... but yea... they wıll acutaly shave you... put a flame to your face to burn what ever haır ıs left over and then shave you agaın... when he was doıng ıt I just about had a heart attack!... well obvıously. Anyway Marmarıs ıs quıte far from what you would thınk Turkey would be lıke... but then agaın I guess thats to be expected sınce ıt ıs such a resort hang out for fat Scandınavıans, Brıts and Germans... ıt should be much more Turkey-esk once I start headıng north... should be an ınterestıng tıme.

sadly it is very hard to get away from the tourists, but nevertheless their numbers do start to dwindle when you get to interesting places. However, Epheseus you cannot escape them.
