Turkey
Under 10,000-foot peaks, my guide and I drive up onto the burnt, barren, 5,000-foot-high Anatolian plateau to Erzurum, the main city of eastern Turkey. Life is hard here. Blood feuds, a holdover from justice under the Ottomans, are still a leading cause of imprisonment. Winters are below-zero killers.

Turkey: Which tour to do first?
The Best of Turkey in 2019 and Istanbul last year. I would agree with the other respondents- If Possible, I would go on the Best of Turkey tour first. There are some repeats- but great to see them again. Hope you get Yaren for a tour guide- she is fantastic and led both of my tours. Happy planning. Turkey is wonderful. Cheryl

Rick Steves' favorite Greek island has the coziest beaches
Rick Steves' favorite island is the epitome of tranquil with zero cars, donkeys for transportation, and only one major town with little villages dotted around. "On Hydra, a traffic jam is three donkeys and a fisherman," the travel connoisseur wrote on Rick Steves' Travel Blog. In fact, the donkeys do most of the labor for the island.
