Where do I start? Well finding Can's house online really made me feel like I found the ideal aesthetic I was searching for in a house. Since I was intending on a long term stay I wanted a place I would really like and enjoy staying at. It is located in a quiet and green area in an upscale neighbourhood in Istanbul which is close to both metro and buses. However it can be tiring walking all the hills surrounding the area which the house is located and sometimes taxi becomes ideal. It is 5min walk to Boğaziçi which makes it perfect for the ones studying there.
The house situation was not really as expected since the house doesn't look like the pictures any more. The garden is somehow neglected, however the rooms have been renovated for the better. There are still problems to be solved in the house since it is very old and needs maintenance like the kitchen sink, oven etc. I mean the vintage aesthetic is nice but it needs to be functional as well. The cat, the dog and the turtle certainly add a charm to the experience since they are so friendly but it seems that they need a little bit more love and care. Apart from that everything seems alright and Can is always a call away to try and make things right.
