This episode is a chat with Ufuk Özalp, a native and citizen of Turkey, who owns a tourism agency, Mosaics of Turkiye. He started the company because of his passion for his country’s culture and history. After all, he loves traveling because he wants to share Turkey with new friends from other countries. I can attest to how he provides a 100% quality experience for travelers.
