Overview

Having run into riots in Egypt and Greece, this trip was a meticulously planned journey through some of the archaeological and natural wonders of Turkey. That was until President Erdogan annoyed the vast majority of the country and hordes of Turks stormed Taksim Square in Istanbul, some 100 yards from where my hotel was booked. Not one to give in to political pressure, I boarded my flight from London regardless and began a wonderful three week journey of discovery that changed not only my view of the past but also of the current world we live in. Allow me to take you on this three week tour of this fascinating country and share my thoughts on the wonderful people who live there.

Author Information

Born and raised in Berkshire, in the South East of England, Kevin Scott declined the offer of studying at Eton and ended up at one of the worst comprehensive schools in Bracknell. Somehow he managed to get a few A levels, and as he had a season ticket for Brighton and Hove Albion Football Club, ended up at University there doing a History degree. History degrees are fairly useless, so mundane jobs were supplemented by a passion for writing comedy. A couple of successful TV submissions later, an Edinburgh Festival appearance and a pilot show for the BBC which saw him doing a ventriloquist act with a talking kebab, Kevin found his real vocation in life. Leaving the country. The accounts of his travels have previously been serialised for local talking newspapers for the blind and now by popular demand (by a group of blind octogenerians in Kent) are available in paperback. Kevin's writing combines a passion for history, a cynical view of the modern world and a silly sense of humour, resulting in an easily read narrative that is both entertaining and informative.
