I’ve walked Spain’s Camino de Santiago, the St Paul Trail in Turkey, the Caminho da Fe in South East Brazil, Sweden and Norway’s St Olaf’s path and the last third of the Via Francigena through Italy to Rome. But you’re unlikely to find anything spiritual here, though.
Just a lot of moaning. And hopefully something to make to make you smile.
Ramblings of a Walker 
Hi Rob, no wise words yet on village life in Yuvacali nor the origins of civilisation at Göbekli Tepe? If you are still on the hunt for local stories get to Hasankeyf and find out about the Unesco nominated world heritage site about to be drowned beneath the Ilisu hydropower dam …. Keep on truckin’!
Been otherwise engaged I’m Istanbul but will post soon thanks for tip will check it out Bob
