Canakkale and Bozcaada



In the morning we visited Troi (30km from Canakkale). Thanks god we had museum cards which gave us free admission, if we had to pay 10 lira for the entrance as the others it would definitely not be worth it! You can see better Troian Horse from „Troi” movie in the downtown of Canakkale. Producers of the film gave it to the city as a gift.
We wanted to leave Canakkale in the afternoon and go to Edirne and then to Turkish-Bulgarian border but Emre and his friends told us that we can go with them to Bozcaada for one day. We thought with : wwhy not? Bozcaada is former Greek island with white houses, small cafes and restaurants, life goes there slowly and it's a perfect place for a break from big city life. We met there many extraordinary people, who after carrying out very active lives settled down on the island to have some rest.

In the evening we had bbq with grilled fish in the middle of the island and party in the harbour. Bozcaada is very specific place and something new what we didn't expect in this -in fact- muslim country.

For Poles only: Nie propagujcie tego słowa wśród obcokrajowców.
With Emre we're going to Bozcaada

Small Island style


In the morning we had some walk and later we took a ferry to the land. What is nice in Bozcaada – you need to pay only once when you want to get to the island. Ferry Company claims that if you are on the island it means that you paid for ticket to get there and return is for free.
