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.
