There is something else to this story. A married woman who left her husband and children in NY to travel alone in Turkey?
There may be something else going on. I don’t know.
But she originally planned to go with a girlfriend. I saw an interview with the friend and she said she decided that she really couldn’t afford it and backed out. The dead woman had already made plans and wanted to go. She was in touch with her husband & sister & other family members several times a day, giving them her itinerary.
The side-trips to europe were already in the plans according to her friend, so not something she decided to do after getting to Turkey.
She was coming home a few days early because she missed her kids & wanted to surprise them.
It sounds very sad to me.

I tend to agree. Married people, male or female, typically don’t just take off alone to new lands. They might go with others, usually a group, or go to visit family - but traveling alone to a foreign land simply doesn’t make sense...especially with young kids left behind.
