One of my amazing friends/ team members here sent this out for my birthday and the amount of love I have for it basically sums up how much I love this trip!
My fantastic friends here took me to my favorite restaurant here for my birthday. I would die for the mushroom risotto there. Truer love has never existed. After dinner the owner dimmed the lights and turned on some music, and they all danced a dessert out to the table. I’ve had some great birthdays, but this is pretty high on the list now!
I was still pretty sick, but we all made the best out of it. A few days later it was another weekend and since I was FINALLY feeling better, we took a short 90 minute ferry over to a close Turkish city called Ayvalik. Everyone that comes to work on this program gets enticed by stories of the Turkish Breakfast and it honestly lived up to the hype!
