Postcards from the Ege: Jack Scott's Turkey Trail
With such an immense political and cultural heritage, it’s no surprise kaleidoscopic Turkey is such a feast – a prime cut of authenticity, seasoned by the West and spiced by the East. Jack Scott knows a thing or two about the country. He lived there for four years and travelled widely – to Istanbul and along its south-western shores from Izmir to Alanya. In Postcards from the Ege, Jack Scott shares some of his must-sees and personal highlights. Follow Jack’s trail. Come to Turkey.
