My friend who runs the website The Art Of Travel have visited Southeast Turkey this spring (March/April) and posted articles about this trip (articles are in Serbian, but you can see photograps and which places she visited), and she even organized a tour to Southeast Turkey with one of out tourist agecies. She claims she felt absolutely safe during the trip.

I´m afraid I´m the oldest member here - my membership started 1/1/1970 

Anyway, since my first post is from 05 Jul 2005, I can say that my membership lasts a bit more than 11 years.

So, duskahvesi, may I help you?

And the song is? (just curious...)

 I also miss old times spent here  Not just conversations (especially heated, mentioned by Alameda), not even particular members, but having fun, making efforts to improve website, exchanging experiences and informations, this is something I will never forget. Most of my knowledge about Turkey, its language, culture, history, music and poetry, significant places - I owe to this website and people I met here. And I never felt again in my life such enthusiasm like during my first years at TC...

Unbelievable! Five more years passed, and I feel like it was yesterday when I wrote this message! And absolutely nothing has changed in my attitude toward Turkey and Turkish Class - I still feel both of them as my second home...

Thank you again, Turkish Class 

Happy Easter everyone who celebrates

Happy Easter to you too, susie 

Nice to see you here after all these years. Yes, bydand is right, some of the old names still appear here now and then  

So where have you gone?

I watch Kara Para Aşk with the group of girls from Balkans, who translate it to our language(s), I like it very much, especially main characters, Elif and Ömer

Yes, but on the other hand, some stubbornly remain, as Gibraltar rock

Via Egnatia is still an important route, although the parallel between ancient and modern road is not exact (the western section, from Thessaloniki to the Adriatic Sea, runs further south than the ancient road).

Last summer I traveled Egnatia Odos from Thessaloniki to Igoumenitsa - some parts look just breathtaking!
