Hi,
What about telling us about your holidays?
As for me I spent a week in Turkey. I took the plane in Paris and flew for three and a half hours to Izmir. There a woman was waiting for us to drive us by bus to Kusadasi (pronounced kouchadaseu). She is a French woman who married a Turkish man five years ago. She is from Lievin, in the North of France. She confessed that her husband followed her to France but he didn't get used to the weather. It was a bit too wet and too cold for him. So, they went back to Turkey. He then became the manager of a hotel (not the one we went to) and she started working for a holidays group at the hotel where we went.
We arrived in the afternoon at the hotel which is based very close to the sea. How wonderful it is to have meals almost on the beach, listening to the waves and looking at the sun downing in the evening. We could have a glass, then go to the beach and as soon as we were thirsty come back to the bar and have another glass before swimming a little. It was very comfortable. I loved it.
Concerning the site, it was very beautiful. The beach was in front of us and on the right side, we had a view on the mountains. We even took a boat to some little beaches on the edge of these mountains. The water was like a warm bath.
And you'd say, what about Turkish people? They are really nice. They don't speak a lot of French, but if you can speak English, I assure you you can spend good time with them. I had the feeling that they didn't know what to do to please us. I have never met so nice people. I advise you to go there, really, you'll come back with so many souvenirs in your minds.
