In every human interaction there is a relationship been form. With those interactions we are offer the opportunity to create an impact and build on memories that will be remember.
There are few people that deserve a special post! These are the people who made by stay in Kapadokya unique!
-Killian
French guy, with red long curly hair. He has such a peaceful aura, a beautiful smile, and radiated lots of positive energy. We started talking as if we had known each other for years! How great and amazing what he is doing: wasn't happy at work and decided to quit and travel for a year with two goals: no airplanes and China will be final destination. Personally I think he might be going after that if money and body are ok.
His family spread around the world! Has 3 brothers living in Canada, Russia and France. Has done quite some traveling around the globe.
He is funny, silly, and very talkative. Killians like certain structures and sets short goals in order to keep the traveling going. He shared stories and you know that good things happen to good people because his energy is sooooooo good that it attracts the best of each of us. He is very easy going.
He got a smart phone for the trip. He does not have Facebook neither Instagram, he uses no social media. Every month or so he send a hand written letter to the parents where he adds some pictures from that part of the trip. In addition he sends postcards to some good friends and family.
It was a plus meeting him! It had brought a different perspective to the traveling, had encourage me and made me gain confidence about the next steps in these journey. I hope our paths cross again.
-Fati: souvenir shop seller man.
He was laughing at how much time we spent taking pictures of the evil eye tree. I don't blame him: we spent at least 10 minutes.
He asked us where we are from and when I say Argentina he starts talking about mate. He confessed that he tried smoking the Yerba to see if it would have similar effects than weed! Jajajajajajajajajaja. The more I think about it the more I laugh!
We talked for 10 minutes, helped him attracting tourist, I bought the snow globe from him. He asked me to add him on Facebook and gave us some suggestions on how to continue the trip. We spoke about couch surfing and he laughed on how Rosa and I choose the host!
-Burdham: the guy who gave us a ride.
Guy in the mid forties! Couldn't be more thankful that he stopped! We could have been soooo wet! We did some quick conversation. He gave us some suggestions on things to do in the valley but we did not understood him. He had a thick accent. First ride we get from the trip.
-Bold: Julia's friend
He claims he is 37yrs old. He looked like in his mid fifties. Hard to believe. Julia met him thru couch surfing. He hosts his guests at the carpet shop and helps them arrange cheap tours and thins to do. He owns a carpet shop: "The flying carpet".
Since we met him he was friendly and welcoming. He sent his friend to a town 30mins away to buy Kapadokya home made wine for us! :) he also gave us suggestions on what to do, and explained us about the history and designs of carpets.
-Adem: Oz Cappadocia (bike, ATV, scooter shop owner)
We met him on Thursday morning when we rented the bikes. He is so good looking and has beautiful blue eyes. He is friendly, likes to talk, laughs a lot, and is very helpful.
We rented 2 bikes from him. He gave us a good deal and explained the places we should go, how to get to them and what to do in case of a flat tire!
When we returned the bikes and we ask him to reimburse us some money for earlier drop off, instead he invited us on an ATV ride at 4:30 to get some pics for his flyers.
He was soooo much fun during the ride! He made jokes all the time, made us feel welcome and comfortable!
During our stay in Göreme we kept going to visit him and we were always welcome with a smile and a hug! Totally recommend Oz Capadoccia!
