Places to visit in December! December has arrived. we’re starting to get cold. Longing on one side, disgrace on the other. On the one hand, while walking in front of the burning fireplace, imagining the tea we will drink and the smell of chestnuts cooking on the stove behind us; On the other hand, we are afraid as we imagine the disgrace of the bloody Istanbul traffic, its crowded and chaotic structure, and the nightmare that collapsed after it snowed.. But isn’t every season beautiful in its own way? Didn’t every beauty have a flaw?
Winter is a difficult season.. let’s admit. But when I think of the winter season we understand, that many countries of the world are just starting summer months, that the hot weather is preparing itself for new beauties especially in the Ecuador and Southern hemisphere parts, especially when I think of us who can’t get enough of summer after taking a 1-2 weeks off and going far away. As I dream of the days I was swimming in the middle of the ocean, with a t-shirt and shorts underneath, on the plane I boarded while it was snowing, which is my most important and most beautiful longing, something again flashes before my eyes.

Though I admire the Egyptian Museum in Cairo, where only mummies are found; then I saw the Egyptian Pyramids in the Giza region. Afterwards, I went to the city of Ain Sokhna to enjoy the beaches of the Red Sea.. This is a place for complete relaxation.
