Back to Istanbul

With our flight from Kayseri, we left central Anatolia. The people we met in the smaller towns (like Nigda) would nominally be the least interested in reaching out to Christians and Jews of Muslim people in Turkey. Yet, even the small-town Imam (Muslim clergyman) was very into interfaith outreach. This turns out to be as much as Muslim thing as a Gülen thing, but it's heartwarming nevertheless.
