Hi everyone,
I just moved to Halkali (I know, I know, I'm in the real suburbs) and teaching in a primary school. Orignally from Singapore. Would love to get to meet new friends in Istanbul. Please feel free to message me on this board. I was living in Georgia (Gurcistan) last year and decided to move to Istanbul after falling in love with the city. (It was that damn ferry ride from Kadikoy to Eminonu).

Speak soon!
Mariana

Hi Mariana

I am glad to find a fellow Singaporean here in Istanbul. I dont think there are many around.

I go by Fana (as Ive given up hope that people here can properly pronounce my name) and I have been living here for a total of 3 years - 2 years from 2006 to 2008 and then from 2013 to present.

I am married to a turk and we have a 21 month old daughter.

We reside in Fenerbahce near to Buyuk Kulup. If you live close by perhaps we can meet for tea or coffee?

Have a good day ahead.
