DÜNYANIN BAŞLANGIÇI

 another journey is over. we went to the beginning of mesopotamia region or better said to the beginning of the world! cultures are like thousands of years before still confronting each other here, places we visited are less and less turkish and more and more kurdish. we flew all across turkey to southeastern part of it. we couldn't stop wondering about so many things - landscape changing so fast from green fields to deserts, incredible hospitality (thank you heja, ata, ali, bilal, cesur, abbas, emin, and everyone else we met on our way), oldest cities merged with the surroundings, about food and pistachio desserts and especially about the fact how calmly people live despite the sound of military planes crossing diyarbakır and despite the fact that terrible war is starting just behind the border.


še eno potovanje je za mano. na začetek mezopotamije oz. na začetek sveta, kjer se kulture tako kot že tisoče let še vedno prepletajo, kraji, katere smo obiskali so vedno manj turški in vedno bolj kurdski. preleteli smo namreč turčijo do jugovzhoda in se nismo mogli nehati čuditi. pokrajini, ki se tako hitro spreminja iz stepe v zelena polja in nazaj do že skoraj puščave, neverjetni gostoljubnosti, starim, pravzaprav najstarejšim mestnim jedrom ujetim v čas in zlitimi z okoliško pokrajino, božanski hrani in pistacijevim slaščicam in dejstvu, da se zdi, da ljudje popolnoma mirno in počasi živijo, čeprav diyarbakır preletavajo vojaška letala na poti v irak in čeprav nedaleč stran divja vojna v siriji.
