Just finished a month of bikepacking in Türkiye. My second time there this year. Along with my month in Morocco, this could be my busiest year. Oh! and a few weeks in France, Scotland and England.
Had a few days of rain, so I sat in the tent making 'green' bows. Got 50 yards with this on the first day. Only found tortoises nearby and I don't think the arrow would get through the shell. So went hungry. (Yes, I know, needs more tillering)

Kebabs
Hope these activities weren't linked
In any case, you can't hit a tortoise with an arrow

Hi and thanks for posting. Were you following any particular route?
The first trip, one month, I flew into Bodrum Airport (not town) and followed the coast (not all) around to Dalaman Airport. Mainly wild camping in remote bays so I could practice my freediving.
This trip, one month, I flew into/out of Dalaman. Doing 3-4 days loops based out of Dalyan. https://theecotrails.com.tr/read-first/?lang=en
I used these loops but also combined them with the hiking trails. The hiking trails were very tough with a loaded bike, and some really nasty bushes that would tear me up.
