A cozy paradise of Arslanbucak ... #TheLongestTrip // I'm at this moment

Sometimes life becomes so concentrated that we need a period of peace... It happens that you are at a crossroads and it is difficult to make a decision. You need to stop, but you roll on inertia, but doubt and depression arise... If you don't feel this need in time - life will stop you to reboot and understand: in which direction to move further towards your dreams!

But if we are three girls, and our dreams lie in different planes... Sometimes it is difficult to find a compromise.***
This is the time period I live in now. And new place, that I living in a cozy area of ​​Kemer - Arslanbucak, surrounded by the Mysterious Mountains of my favorite Kezme Boazi canyon, which is 5 km from my apartment hotel.

After the difficult events of February we went on a trip for a few days. And after returning to Kemer, we needed to find new housing, where they would give us a lease, in order to apply to the residence permit center for a change of address. To be honest, it stresses me out a lot! Why do we, having a tourist residence permit, have to rent housing for the whole year in one place. Why go through a complicated conservative procedure for changing housing every time? Why can't I move freely around the country, renting accommodation in different cities for a few days? But there are rules in Turkey and we have to follow them. So, our friends recommended us the Tebriz apart hotel,which has a comfortable price of 600 $ per month in April. Once I got here, I immediately felt the clean air and the magical energy of the mountains, and we settled down.

Despite the fact that the apartment hotel is large, it was incredibly quiet. A comfortable room with a large terrace overlooking the pool. Here we could escape from our constant movement and active life. However, at first, my daughter Victoria was very afraid to stay in this area, since we do not have our own car, and we had to take a bus to Kemer. But little by little, she realized that there is nothing wrong with this, since the bus comes exactly on schedule.

This is how our life happens: during the day we walk in a cozy and calm area, and after lunch we usually go to Kemer, where the active life is raging. There the tourist season is starting little by little.

For a few days we rented a car again, and of course we visited our favorite canyon Kesme Bogazi
In April, the water in the mountain river is already quite warm and the stones heat up. So I wanted to spend a lot of time bathing in this clean, rushing river and sitting on the bank, listening to the sound of the stream, which gave me peace in my soul...

We found a new wonderful place behind a giant stone, where next to the rock wall the water seems to slow down and create a blue depth. And higher up the stream there is a small waterfall, which, like a whirlwind, falls into this depth! And this picture fascinates with its bright colors and cheerful energy!
We feel like little beloved children among the great giant mountains created for us by a loving Father...

There are days when we do not go to Kemer. That's when we go to explore the village of Arslanbucak. Peace and harmony reign here. Bright flowers bloom on the fences where there are private villas. There is one villa that amazes us with the luxury of its gates. It looks like the Sultan lives here. And at the entrance there is a stucco of a winged horse!

There is a lot of space on the streets. The aromas of flowers fill the air. There is no problem to park a car here. After the narrow streets crowded with people and cars in the Izmir region, life in this place is like paradise...

This fertile time gives an opportunity to taste many exotic fruits of Turkey. For example, mulberry trees are truly like a gift from God to all people. The trees lower their branches behind the fences, to the very ground and give the opportunity to eat from their branches to all people.

Orange trees fascinate us with their beautiful blossoms and fragrance. And the greatest pleasure is given to medlar fruits that ripen at this time of April.
This orange miracle of nature hangs high in the trees, and you have to try to get the ripe fruits from the upper branches.

Two years and two months have passed since we left our native Ukraine
