In 2010, after living in London for 10 years, I moved back to my country of origin and my house in Bodrum, Turkey . I enjoy the lovely climate and the rural pace of life and would find it hard to go back to city living. I get fresh cows milk from the villagers, make my own yoghurt, get my fresh fruit and vegetables from the village markets, and the eggs come from happy chickens.
If I want to have a relaxing day on a quiet beach, I go to the local Kadikalesi beach or I go to Gumusluk, which is only 3 km away from my house and known for it’s bohemian life style. If I want to have a taste of the city life, I am only 20 mins drive to party town Bodrum center or even an hours flight to Istanbul where I lived for the most part of my life.
