Sometimes there are times in life when I need a reboot. Then I rent a car and go on a little road trip inside my #TheLongestTrip
That's how I went for a week and again my life on wheels was fast, exciting, full of adventure... There was only time to look, enjoy new places, sleep, and move on... During the trip, we all experienced some "exotic" virus", Later we arrived at a new home in Chamyua, which is close to Kemer, in Turkey.

Finally, we rested, slept, recovered... And after a few days the weather was wonderful. It's still winter, it's February, and it's 20 degrees outside! Taking advantage of the moment when we still have this rental car, we went for a walk in Paradise Bay, which I visited once in October
This protected area is located 11 km from Kemer.

And fate gave me another walk in this beautiful place. Now already at the end of February, on the eve of spring. And I saw this beauty in a new way. A magical mountain covered with blooming wild daffodils!
Their purple glow seemed to illuminate the forest and make it magical. It was like we were truly in heaven. The smell of pine trees on the sea, a breathtaking turquoise lagoon. This bay is truly the pearl of the Antalya region. There's a reason it's called Paradise Bay ( Cannet köyü )

Amazing purple flowers peeked out from behind each stone like magical gnomes. Sometimes they were single, and sometimes they grew up in whole families!

My @darine.darine stood on the edge of the cliff, high above the water, and gazed rapturously at this sea depth, which beckoned the eye with all the beautiful shades of blue and turquoise colors.

There was a place for a fire made of stones. I imagine how nice it would be to sit here, looking at the sea.

Since we left the house a little late and it was already past 4 p.m., I was in a hurry to catch the last rays of the sun on the shore of another small bay that was deep in the forest.

There were three fishermen who treated us to tea. My girls didn't support my initiative to swim in winter, but of course I couldn't pass up such an opportunity to experience the heavenly pleasure of swimming in the midst of such beauty!

The sun was slowly sinking to the horizon, but the last rays still made their way between the pine branches and the stones were still warm.

The climate of the Antalya region is perfect for me. The water temperature in the sea does not fall below 17 degrees Celsius throughout the winter. Therefore, swimming in the sea is very comfortable. And if you come to the sea from 1 to 3 p.m., you can enjoy the warmth as if it were summer!

After swimming, I went up the mountain to take some photos of this small, charming, cozy bay. I hope that my photos were able to convey to you the beauty of this place. Illuminated by the evening sun, pine trees grow directly above the sea on a rock that has orange hues. And against the background of sea water, which shimmers with beautiful shades of turquoise and blue colors. And all this beauty is complemented by amazing green flowers growing on the mountainside!

So, we did a photo shoot of our @bugavi against the background of this magical corner of nature and slowly started our way back to our car.

Now we were walking at a leisurely pace, enjoying even more the new discoveries of the beauty of this fascinating place! We saw large clusters of purple flowers, which were so beautiful against the sea. I always take a lot of photos of this beauty. And my soul is filled with energy and happiness from the contemplation of the natural, pristine environment! This conservation area is surprisingly clean. I want to express my respect to the Turks who protect this protected area!

Majestic rock formations add a sense of grandeur to this natural site. How beautiful is the Earth that I have the happiness to enjoy!

And although my girls didn't really want to go up, they were happy and satisfied. Physical activity benefits everyone's health.
Now I plan to live a week of quiet life in Chamyua, and hopefully I will have more time to tell you about our adventures of the past two weeks!

On March 1, it will be two years since we left our native Ukraine, into which the war sent us... and went on our #TheLongestTrip
My daughters and I became inhabitants of planet Earth.
Thank you to all of you who read and follow our lives 💕

Istanbul was about 20C as well during the weekend. The place and its sightseeing look amazing. I would love to have a barbecue there, fire on stones ;)

I hope you will definitely visit Paradise Bay and have a picnic there. And I dream of walking in the historical center of Sultanahmet in Istanbul.

Wao! What a beautiful view, it is a dream place. The water's color would have made me go for a swim too. 🙌

I also want to go place like this. I want to swim and dive into clear water. Nice sharing

I am glad that I was able to convey to you my emotions and the beauty of this place. Thank you for your visit.

What a lovely view!
It’s so amazing and beautiful

I'm glad you liked it 😊

You had a wonderful walk this Wednesday.

Beautiful flower color ❤️

I will not comment on the turquoise color of the sea in Paradise bay, I'm sorry that the sea is so far away from me :-)

Yesterday, at an incredible 22°C in Belgrade, I took pictures of beautifully blooming buds.
In Turkey, spring is already coming, but I think for the Balkans, winter has not yet hit "minus" for the last time...

Краса неймовірна! З весною, Оленько!)))
