We had a wonderful time with Koray’s father—one of the friendliest people we’ve ever met. He patiently waited for us at the airport while we dealt with missing luggage, then drove us in about 20 minutes to his seaside home. Along the way he skillfully used a G translation app to tell us all about the region and to engage in friendly conversation. The floor of his house that we rented had everything we needed. Also, even during this low season we found a number of small grocery stores and restaurants within several minutes walk. In the evening we traded stories with our host and enjoyed some of his garden produce and drinks together. A terrific hospitality experience. We definitely hope to come again when transiting through nearby IST.
