The scent of spring in the autumn forest of Kemeru was a wonderful discovery during our walk along our favorite path among the majestic giant pines.

I wrote about this magical place, which is a 15-minute walk from the center of Kemer, Turkey, last spring. I loved walking there and enjoying the rich piney air filled with the fragrance of spring flowers.

Later in the summer we didn't walk there because the mosquitoes were biting.
And then a gentle autumn came, the water in the sea became colder, and we again went for a walk in the forest.

Going deeper into the forest, we suddenly heard the spring aroma. Great feeling! what smells so good? Purple flowers of amazing beauty bloomed all around!

These flowers resembled the indoor plant Cyclamen, which I bought in Ukraine to treat sinusitis, which had been my problem for many years. I googled it and found out: it really is a blooming cyclamen! It turns out: the homeland of cyclomen is Turkey. Here, this plant grows in the wild nature on high mountain areas in pine forests.

The sun was hiding behind the giant pines and created a beautiful red shade in the sky. The silence was broken only by the cries of crows. It was a magical feeling of harmony and peace.

Here you can climb up the stones like stairs and enjoy the views of Kemer.
I like to be at a height, to feel the scented wind on my face and listen to the soft whispers of the forest.

Later we stopped at a nice lawn and I did my exercises and my Darinka danced :)
Nature gives us energy and joy of life!

Our #TheLongestTrip has been going on for one year and nine months since we left our native Ukraine because of the war. We have learned to live today and appreciate every moment of our life.
