Look What We’re Cooking Up in Turkey….

After leading a private trip for 30 to Istanbul, Ankara and Diyarbakir, I devoted a little extra time to scout out some venues for a philanthropic journey in South East Turkey for next year. It was an amazing mix of great grassroots organizations, deep history, exotic culture and delicious food. Not only were the places less touristed, but the experiences were more authentic and the people could not be more welcoming.

For those thinking about what meaningful connections and adventures lie ahead in 2013, let me suggest you consider getting your hands a little dirty with me next year. Itinerary will be available in the near future, so please let me know if you would like special email notification as soon as it is available. Space will be limited.

To whet your appetite, here’s a little photo album of the scouting trip. (And yes, there is a photo of me lending a hand to some new friends at a local bakery in Gaziantep.)
