One of my main reasons for revisiting Konya was to try etlietmek, something closely resembling an elongated thin crusted pizza.
Large produce market and bicycle repair alley in Konya
Covered heads and covered bicycle parking
After a second visit to Konya, Jonas and I took a bus south to the Mediterranean coastal town of Side.
Side is a tourist trap.
The warning signs are as follows:
-The prices listed change from Turkish Lira to Euros
-Everyone speaks German
-Shops are lining the streets selling knockoff clothes and kitsch items
This is the jewel adorning Side's beach.
If I showed the foundation of these remains, you would only see pale skinned, flabby tourists taking pictures of one another.
We found a rare patch of forest to camp for the night.
Tomorrow Jonas will head west to catch his flight back to Germany as I cycle east along the coast.
