If I said to you "Turkish buses", what images spring to mind? It would probably not be the following:
- Clean modern bus stations with excellent food and shops
- Brand new buses with individual TVs and headphones in every seat
- 8 channels of live TV, including cartoons for the children
- Wireless Internet
To provide a contrast: we were travelling across the Anatolian plateau from
Nevshehir to
Konya and I read an article on the Internet in the Scotsman where the question was whether the Glasgow-Edinburgh rail line should have full
Internet connectivity. This is a 55 minute rail journey across the most densely populated part of Scotland, and while they are debating this, in a remote corner of Turkey I am accessing the article via the
Internet on a bus!
