Narrow streets in the center of the island by tractor carrying grapes, wineries salkımından leave immediately bored. The roads among vineyards such as vine leaves, it smells sweet.
Five years ago, when I went to Bozcaada for the first time in the middle of September, schools opened, the crowds drawn, vintage, was about to end. 5 log, rent a bike, run-down, turned the pedal off course different every day, my soul to light during the winter in my memory images, smells, sounds you saved. The grape harvest has become a ritual for me after this trip. Repeated in two years. The last two years in September, "Tenedos" he sayıklıyorum, but did not go to the fortune.
Day at work can spend a week to fade away, I went to authorization. I kept the path of island.
The first signal of the change, every time I received when I called my stay in the harbor of view. Operator has changed, at the end of the season, double rooms cost about 70 to TRY my accommodation was £ 320. Alaçatı'yla foot on the island when I compete in all prices, friendly places that I been forced to leave some of the shopkeepers saw, I'm sorry.

Slopes of the exit became easily. Down the slopes descending to the shore I left myself a long, mechanical clinking sound of the wind, and immigration rather than just saying before the last songs in the air, bounces off me, I heard the birds competing.
MAGIC VALLEY
The first business, the island's favorite picnic place and wooded area to the beach topping up Bozcada Suluçeşme Valley and took the road lined with vineyards. Slope out of the building office of the governor, I came across traces of tsunami bayramdaki Ayazma'ya saptığımda: lying on her back on the coast highway, or glued to the asphalt poor hedgehogs, cats, pet bottles thrown into the window of the car ...
When I was under my feet most of the plain of the island. The following links on the coast, small rocky islands. Poyrazla away from the dancing wind turbines ... Petrol station next to the pizzeria had opened a surprising elegance. My eyes searched for the past tomato fields.
