Huseyin was a really great host. He's a very smart guy and he speaks very good English and German (and other languages too). It was the highlight of my whole time in Istanbul hanging out drinking tea with him and talking about history and politics. His appartment is nothing fancy, but for the price i was expecting much worse. His neighborhood is actually really cool, and he's very close to a very lively and fun street. Not super close to the touristy spots, but i prefer it that way. I would absolutely recommend! And I sincerely hope we stay in touch.
