It might seem as though we're late with our monthly news from Fethiye for January, but allow us to convince you otherwise. We kicked off the new decade with a look back and look forward at the beginning of the year so that covered a few bases. As for the end of February Fethiye news post, that …
The Merry Month Of May – In Fethiye
Our monthly Fethiye news articles seem to come around very quickly but yet, today, sitting typing this article, I'm thinking back to the beginning of May and it seems like such a long time ago. Friends were here and it feels like an age since we saw them. All good, then, that life isn't passing by …
Lunching At Izela, Kayaköy – A First And Not A Last

We've been running a lot over winter - strange how it pushes other loves in your life into the background without you noticing.

Baba Zula Play Roots In Kayaköy
Hmm, I think we can well and truly say, Fethiye is definitely on the music map of Turkey, these days. Past blog posts in years gone by have seen us sulking a tad because none of our favourite Turkish bands - even non-favourite Turkish bands for that matter - ever had Fethiye as part of their tour …

Wandering The Ruins Of Kayaköy – Recording A Village In Photos
A few weeks ago, we took advantage of the fact that the Müzekart had been made available to foreign residents in Turkey by shelling out 50 TL for a Müzekart+. And recently, we actually made use of it, showing it to the lady in the ticket booth amongst the ruins of Kayaköy. This year, entrance to …

Bülent’in Yeri – A Kayaköy Comfort Blanket
In a town that is constantly growing, changing, evolving; where new eateries regularly appear on the scene, tempting foodies with designer interiors and increasingly innovative menus, we also fully appreciate - and perhaps rely upon - the comforting presence of places like Bülent'in …
