an evening out or that
special meal.

indifferent, and you would

| New
property deal, Buy now, move in, pay
later. |
| The
credit crunch around the world is
making some people fear that their
dream of owning a home abroad may be
lost forever. People have
become nervous about signing up to a
long term fixed contract mortgage,
and the thoughts of parting with a
chunk of savings is also met with
reluctance. However the Turkey
Herald have found a company who have
come up with some innovative
financing options which may bring
your dream of a second home in the
sun within reach.
The
innovative scheme they offer is
based upon the concept of a
hire-purchase agreement – BUY

| Up
Up and Away. |
| Perfect peace in the
air. We flew early in the morning
because this time of day provides
calm, cool air for gentle and stable
flights, soft landings and maximum
lifting capacity of the balloon. It
is also the ideal time for
photography, with splendid colours
and contrasts and the beauty of the
sunrise. |
|
|
Once
aloft we didn't notice turbulence or
wind as we became one with the air
currents. The basket hangs
motionless in the air-mass in which
it is suspended. In the calm
conditions in which we flew there
was nothing that could make the
basket sway and the sense of
movement was much more subtle than
an elevator ride. The feeling was
one of peace as we drifted over tree
tops and floated over the
countryside. For those of us of a
"certain age" you can't
help but sing in your head the old
classic "Up Up and Away in a
beautiful balloon".
We were in the air for about an hour
and a half! The whole experience
lasted in between 3 to 4 hours, so
we had the rest of the day to enjoy
the many attractions of Cappadocia.
Thank you to the team at Kapadokya
Ballons for an experience
never to forget. |

| Homeshare
in the Sun |
A
brand new idea and it's hit Turkey, Homeshare
or "Fractional buying" is a recent
idea and a perfectly legal way to get on to
the property abroad ladder without outlaying
the full cost of a property. Our aim is to
spread worldwide. Our first Country, Turkey
has seen property prices rising to new
heights. Why not buy with a group of like
minded buyers? Share the costs, share the
property, share the pleasure.
Unlike timeshares or vacation clubs (where
people buy memberships and pay dues), shared
ownership comes with a property deed making it
a true asset that will appreciate at current
market rates. Sharing a property could cost
you as little as £1,100. Visit the website http://www.homeshareinthesun.com
for more details.
