Profile details

About

A lover of adventure and of the spontaneity that the journey brings. Istanbul-based. I love to combine luxury and comfort for my clients.

Travel style

My travel style is a combination of luxury and comfort. As much as I love a typical tourist experience, I also love to feel like I am at home while being away from home. This is why I try not to miss out on the more hidden, local places. I love to experience luxury in my visits while feeling like a local at the same time.
