Jennifer’s latest travel piece, In the Offering: Two Sides of a Turkish Sacrifice, appears in the May/June edition of Perceptive Travel, the award-winning online magazine for travelers with open minds and open senses.
In a tale set against the backdrop of southern Turkey’s mountains, the Expat Harem editor ponders the meaning of sacrifice as she considers the rural Anatolian custom of animal offerings to give thanks for one’s good fortune, and the concessions we choose to make for the people we love.
