Hi,
Today I am gonna tell you what I am doing before travelling. Maybe it will be a little inspiration and you wanna do it bla bla...
1- If you like eating and trying new foods you should search for its cuisine. Smart phone application Zomato or Foursquare are here for that. For example I couldn't think of eating artichoke dessert in Urla. But I did!
2- You like museums or you decide to undiscover all the things in the city, Google it! If you are going with tours make sure it will show you what you want or you have free time to see what you want. İstanbul has Ataturk Arboretrumu. What is that now? Well...
3- You are going with tours, don't miss the festival opportunities or early reservation. If you wanna make your own plan you can search pansiyon, camping and distance where you wanna see in town.
4- You arrange everthing and here comes the packing turn. Crazy packing ideas all over the interner. But i can suggest that you can roll your t-shirts and stuff this way you save much more spot to another things. And don't bring five pairs of shoes. If you go with your old t-shirts or dresses, you hasitate less to throw old ones when you buy something. Especially you are going abroad. We fill that suitcase and we don't wear them all. Sad but true.
5- And don't whine for little issues. It ruins your vacation. I did, that is why I know. Have fun.

About Bus Companies and Alternative Applications
Hi,
Today I wanna inform you about bus companies in Turkey. If you afraid of fliying a bit, like me, or skip to buy your tickets months ago and now it is too expensive, I have some suggestion about alternative.
First one is price differencies between bus companies. Pamukkale, Kamil Koç, Varan and Ulusoy is good, yes. I agree on that one. But from İstanbul to İzmir 75 or 80 TL. But with İzmir Seyahat I went İzmir for 60 TL. And from İzmir to Kuşadası 17 TL with Kamil Koç but 10 TL with İsmail Ayaz Bus Company. I suggest that if you look for "less popular" companies you can travel much cheaper. You should search for local companies like they travel only specific areas. Because two of them I travel with were like that.
Besides that Yol Yola and Bla Bla Car is about car sharing. You can find from internet and Bla Bla Car has a phone application. Even if you can not find English version you can solve this problem with a translate. You can choose where are you now and where are you going and search for travel that suits you. It is easy and much more cheaper. Travel safe and travel more!

Selçuk
I was in Selçuk today. If you travel around Selçuk two days you will be more satisfied about your trip because there are lots of places to go. In your first day you can go Ephesus and then House of Virgin Mary. After that you can eat gozleme and drink ayran in Seven Sleepers. Ephesus is two kilometers away from Selçuk. Most bizarre story I heard about Ephesus, include that stone you can see below. If your feet fits perfectly or bigger than that feet you can enter Love House at older times. As you can see I can not:)
Virgin Mary spend her last times in Virgin Mary House and it is very important for Christians. The legend says a nun saw that house in her dream, researchers found it where she describes. And the yard has a wish wall. I wish for happines.
After all of this you can go to see remains at Seven Sleepers. It can not take too long because there is not much to see.
In your second day you can have a trip at city center. Ephesus Museum is good place to start. St. John Church and one of Turkey's assymetric mosque İsabey Mosque are good places to visit. If you interested in close history of Selçuk you should visit Selçuk Kent Belleği.
If you wanna visit Artemis Temple you can visit at your second day. But many many years ago temple stone moved somewhere else by ship. You can still take cool photos, though. There is one of my shot:
Night life in Selçuk includes mostly bars. There is no places for dance. Pink Bistro Cafe is in the center. If you don't want to be in crowd Amazon Restaurant/Bar will be good for you. Çadır is against Selçuk Museum and very crowded most of the time. I am not sure you can find a table to sit. Carpouza Cafe is crowded too but you don't feel it because of the view.
Hotels in Selçuk isn't expensive like Şirince. If you wanna stay at hotel with three stars I don't know,though. Otel Rilican 35 TL per person includes breakfast. Pension prices mostly between 30-70 TL.
Yaşar Usta Çöp Şiş, Pınar Pide or Okumuşlar Pide are good places to eat. You can still have your fast food if you wanna. But famous food in Selçuk is şiş kebap.
I whine about Selçuk Nights. If you wanna dance you should go to Kuşadası. Last bus from Kuşadası to Selçuk is at 12pm. If you try to get a cab you have to pay about 100 TL. That is sad and i gues that is why nobody wanna stay in Selçuk at night. Where is the party yo?
