If you are to be my Guest

1. You will be provided with a private room and the home will be introduced to you.
2. I enjoy spending time with guests but I may be busy with my work so be ready to explore alone
3. Treat the house as if it's your house and that's it :)

If you are to be my Host

1. I make sure that I bring an authentic souvenir from Istanbul (or Trabzon) so I won't be forgotten.
2. I hosted many ppl so I can empathize with you, you don't have to show me places u saw a billion times, I can do it solo.
3. I may need to work online, so maybe I would need to get reserved for a few hours sometimes.
