One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One night... When during my Lycian Way trip I struggled with very very huge storm. My tent located 900 meter height from sea level near a cliff, I saw huge tornado above the sea. We could fly with tent. It was very very hard night.

My second memory is good than first. :) I jumped to emptiness running up from Babadağ mountain. But with parachute of course ahaha :) I was above the best view in the world; Dead Sea (Turkey).

My third memory is very funny :) I fell asleep in the train while when i was in my interrail trip. I was 450 km away from my train station when i woke up :))

Drowning hazard, monkey attacks... I had a lot of travel memories :)
