Cengiz Han Primary School decide to take Technobird to Efes (Ephesus was an ancient
Greek city, and later a major Roman city, on the west coast of Asia Minor, near present - day
Selçuk, Izmir Province, Turkey. It was one of the twelve cities of the I onian League during the
Classical Greekera.), the temple of Artemis andthehouse of the Virgin Mary (It is the place
where Mary may have spent her last days. Mary preferred this remote place rather than living in
crowded place.). All these places are in a beautiful district of İzmir called Selçuk. While they
are walking around these places, Technobird feels very happy. It is impressed by the beauty of
these places. When it hears that the Temple of Artemis is one of the Seven Wonders of the
World, Technobird feels himselfs lucky to see it.
They spend hours to see these beautiful places so they feel so hungry. Technobird asked
them: "What can we eat in İzmir, is there something special and traditional here?" They all say
“YES. Let’s eat some traditional food. Ourmenu isrich.” Technobird tastes Kirde Kebabı,
Kuşkonmaz Kavurması, EnginarDolması and Lokma. He loves all of them. Then he says “I
heard Gevrek. What kind of food is it?” They say: “It is a kind of bagel; we call it GEVREK in
İzmir. It is more delicious when it is eaten with Tulum Peyniri(a kind of cheese special to
İzmir). People in İzmir love Gevrek very much and they prefer it in their breakfast. Technobird
loves Gevrek, too. And it takes more Gevrek with it to take them to its family. It is time for
Technobird to go. It takes the photos we taken with it to show its family and friends. Then it
flies to the new route. They will miss him and hang the photos in their classroom. This trip with
Technobird will be a great memory for them. Now Technobird says "Goodbye" and flies to
meet Seferihisar İMKB AİHL project team with eTwinning coordinator Bahriye Akkuş and
her students in the project.
