Thanks for the feedback folks! No plans to ever publish a full feed by RSS though—sorry. That’s the equivalent of movie studios giving you the whole film instead of a trailer. You’ll have to visit my site for the whole shebang.

I live in Turkey and it is crazy how prices just crept up year after year to what they are now. There are some things that are comparable if not more expensive than prices in the UK where I lived before.

A hot air balloon over Cappadocia? That’s gotta be the best. Thanks for the idea.

I *love* Turkey Travel Planner – simply the best source of information on Turkey on the Internet.

Tom’s books are also excellent, I’ve read several of them.

ps. agreed on the full feeds…

Or a week on a fully-crewed gulet from Antalya to Fethiye.

Anybody who publishes there whole post in a feed is going to have to put ads in the feed since you never visit their site.

Hi Tim,

I love your blog. And the last sentence in this article “how many extraordinarily memorable experiences are there in life that you can actually buy? Few. Very few.” is a great way to think about life in general, not just ballooning in Turkey.

Have you considered making your feed include the full feed instead of just a paragraph? It would really help those of us who read blogs strictly through a feed reader and it’s really the whole point of having an rss feed. It’s simply easier.

Looking forward to future posts.

Thanks,
Markus
