On the outskirts of Bodrum in Turkey there is an old fishing village called Gümüşlük, where time has stopped and you can stil walk on a dirt road along the beach and sit with your feet in the water at a cafe or bar table. Such place is Plaj cafe, where every chair and table is painted a different colour. It’s gloriously frozen in time and untouched by the tourist tat you get everywhere these days when you go abroad on holiday.
