The Black Sea Coast of Turkey

This is a teaser post. Watch this CNN video (link is below) and see what you think about the northern part of Türkiye. The Black Sea has been on my bucket list for so long that I feel I’ve been there already. I’m ready to see the verdant mountains and the tea plantations.

Here’s the link: “Turkey’s Black Sea Coast: An Epic Road Trip Back Through Time.” Take five minutes and enjoy.

Here’s what I’ll be reading to get ready for the trip:

1. The Black Sea Coast Travel Guides - https://www.roughguides.com/turkey/black-sea-coast/
2. Planet Ware - https://www.planetware.com/tourist-attractions-/black-sea-coast-tr-is-bsc.htm
3. Lonely Planet - https://www.lonelyplanet.com/turkey/the-black-sea-and-northeastern-anatolia
4. And, of course, the Turkish website for travel - https://visit-turkey.org/destination/black-sea/

Even though I’ve been in and out of Turkey for over thirty years (yikes!), and finally live there half the year, this is one area I have never had the time to visit. Now I do, and I’ll plan for either May or October, my favorite months for travel.

Any suggestions? I’m all ears. Drop me a note in the comments or send me an email.

Thanks!
