Yes, we’re having a double whammy for this roundup of news from beautiful Fethiye. We’ve got November and a bit of December to get through. The thinking behind this is, the end of December is always that time when you look back on the whole year which has passed rather than just the past month. …
Time for another roundup of our monthly news from Fethiye. The month of October. And wow, what a month that was! Didn’t we say in last month’s news that we were looking forward to slowing down and chilling after a crazy busy summer? Didn’t we say we’d be enjoying a bit more indoor life by …

It’s (past) time for another Fethiye news update for the month of April. A bit late this month – but we do have the excuse of being in Istanbul towards the end of April and into the beginning of May. So lovely to be there again after a 5 year absence due to the pandemic …
