DESCRIPTION: I am helping to plan a trip to Turkey for those affiliated
with Harvard (faculty, students, staff, etc.). The Boston Dialogue
Foundation runs several trips a year to Turkey for Americans, and the
entire trip is paid for except for the plane ticket. This trip will
take place *this* December for the urs of Mevlana Jalaluddin Rumi.
There will be people from all over the world there to celebrate the
life, poetry and legacy of Rumi. We will start the trip
in KONYA for the Rumi events, and then travel on to CAPPADOCIA and
ISTANBUL. If you would like more information and are interested in
going, please email ejo2114@columbia.edu as soon as possible.
