Tuna was swift to approve my request to stay at her place. It is helpful and convenient for both parties that she lives on part of the same premises which are being let; she was able to be flexible to accommodate our late arrival time and later on provided us with an iron and ironing board straight away as we needed this. Her place was very was nicely kept and clean, and I’ve heard all the linen were washed and ironed. Unfortunately we had little time to spend there, as we had to attend to a wedding and family living elsewhere in Istanbul. She was even welcoming for us to invite other people to our flat and large gardens to have a brunch there, but then our plans changed. Her place reminded me, my grandparent’s house with gardens, overlooking Bosporus where I have spent my childhood. Thank you Tuna.
