Land of the Beautiful Horses
Learning to ride horses in Cappadocia wasn't on my itinerary, but few worthwhile things are in life. In Persian, Cappadocia means 'Land of the Beautiful Horses.' Until I reach Kyrgyzstan and Mongolia, I doubt I'll find myself in a more suitable place to ride. After a week of lessons I'm achy and sore, but I've learned something I've dreamt about for years.
