About our home

Our home is comfortable, clean and spacious. İt is situated in a gated community with its own swimming pools, basketball, football and volleyball fields. We have an on-site concierge who picks the garbage twice a day.

The large living room with a kitchen, where the whole family can eat, is on the first floor. There is also a hobby room with sports equipment & TV/video and a bathroom with a jacuzzi.

On the second floor, we have four bedrooms. All of them have double beds. We refurbished bedrooms last year.

More about us

We are four - my husband, ourtwo daughters (neat and well-behaved, aged 10 and 13) and I.
We are in our early 40ies. My husband is an engineer and I am an English language teacher in a primary school. We usually travel with a guided tour but last summer we exchanged our flat for the first time and were very pleased with the deal. Before I exchange my house I would like to get to know the exchange partner a little bit.
Interested in studying local cultures & architecture, we would like to visit big cities, rather than rural areas.
We have a summer house by the Medditerranean where we spend our summer vacations with friends and relatives and a mountain house close to our hometown of Tirebolu. That is why we would not be interested in staying at holiday homes as we like biking,kayaking and doing sports at home in Turkey.
We can do non-simultaneous exchanges.
Although our flat is large by some standards, we are quite happy to swap with a considerably smaller accommodation (as always, size is not important...).

Where is it?

Neighbourhood

Ideally located in the green and quiet part of Istanbul, our district offers easy access to the Beylerbeyi Palace, The Bosphorus Straight with its numerous fish restaurants, Uskudar and Eminonu (old towns) with their Mosques, Turkish baths(hamams) and ancient bazaars. Istanbul connecting the two continents, Europe and Asia, has become a center where various cultures and religions are combined. Istanbul had been a capital of 3 magnificent Empires - Byzantine, Rome and Ottoman. There is so much to explore here!
