We came to do bellydancing and even learned to do belly folk ! May the rest of your life be the best of your life. Lynne - from Cardiff - Wales You have a wonderful retreat here in Gokpinar.The space to think and the beautiful company has been appreciated.I learned alot about dancing and about Turkey, enough to what my appetite and to let me how much I don't know.I wish you success in maintainingyour ideals and your wonderful sense of life as it could be lived.Your sincerely Therisa Rogers - from MI - USA Thank you for two weeks of relaxed fun in the sun in lovely Gokpinar.We are sad to leave this amazing retreat and yet excited about the beatiful connections we have made.We caught the history & intensity of Istanbul ,peaceful nature of Gokpinar ,and even some touristy treks of Bodrum,Ephesus & Pamukkale.But our favourite moments include dancing + drumming with your family (and Pala and Tekel !). Eating authentic turkish meals and sipping Raki;and long discussions about life,love and the pursuit of happiness.Best luck in your endeavors.They come from a good place and will bear fruit. peace John and Ashley from Chicago - USA |
