Fell in love with Istanbul and in part due to Can and his family's hospitality. I found myself there on a Saturday, wandering down the most vibrant fresh market to a plush green residential area. Can and his family were incredibly helpful, kind, and generous-- prepared a lovely breakfast on the terrace, helped us with plan the perfect Istanbul/Turkey itinerary, and gave us a beautiful home to be a part of for a few days. Just a head's up... they have a little zoo with dogs, cats, turtles, chickens and turkey. I personally loved that experience!
