Mediterranean Sea Coasts trip with no-tech






They are some photos from Antalya-Tekirova and my friends that im talking about in my article

It was in 2007 Summer,a boat trip around Mediterranean coasts.

In 2007 summer while I was spending my vacation in Antalya with my best friend we were helping a friend who has scuba diving school in a big hotel called Phaselis Rose in Antalya-Tekirova we had a conversation about today's vacations.We had been living in a big hotel so we could observe people clearly.They were so unreal because while a visitor was getting sunbath in front of sun and he was drinking his beverage,he was trying to care with his business or he was trying to solve a problem about house or relatives in kilometers way home at the same time.Soon afterward We agreed on an idea ''Technology makes our vacations wearisome''

One of my friend who was diver had a big boat using to go tourist groups diving trips it was not a huge boat but it had a kitchen,two bathrooms,two ship’s cabins there were hammocks everywhere on the deck and on the roof there were lots of ground pillows.Boat had a nice engine we did not need a sail.It was competible for any kind of coast trips living-sleeping-eating- would not be a problem too.

Me,my friend Nihat,and diver Ersin sit and talked about ‘’going a trip and not take any kind of technological devices,only in this way we could rest for real and talking with people in a real way because everybody was thinking something different when talking with somebody and it was such an annoying behaviour.

Since We decided to go a trip with no technological tools such as telephones,computers etc. many people many people heard about our trip and wanted to join us.

In the beginning of August we sailed away from Tekirova.The next day we casted anchor near a location called 3 islands.During this time we had been fishing,swimming and having good time there with no technology.I still could not believe in this...Nobody took their mobile phones with them.


It was very enjoyable there were lots of things to do without any technology I have never rested more than the next day we had sailed away.Finally there was nobody who is talking with their phones or typing their notebooks like mad.Sleeping in a boat was fell like cradle...


Eventually we had a problem about engine we had to call reinforcement by the time we asked people to if they had a mobile phone everybody took out their mobile phones...it was a full of disappointment but at last we needed a mobile phone.
