Had decided the night before I preferred to visit other places near Ankara than the city itself I hear the proposition made by the tour guide attentively: “What about we visit another place. Ankara is not my favourite city.” This conversation came during breakfast.

“What kind of place?”

“It’s a town, Safranbolu. It’s gorgeous. You will see if we go.”

“It’s far?”

“A little, but not that far.” I agreed.
