  Descripción

  We are a family living in Izmir, which is a big, sunny city on the west coast of Turkey. I have 3 children, who are 13 years, 8 years, and 6 years old. We are living in the city center and have a swimming pool in our complex. Near the house, there are shopping centers, restaurants, and cafes.
  My 13-year-old daughter likes to play board games such as Monopoly, and listen to/tell stories/books. She also plays piano, swims, and cooks well. She is also interested in history and geography and mathematics.
  My 8-year-old son likes to play with Legos and dinosaurs, listen/tell stories/books and he likes swimming and building sand castles.
  My 3rd child is 6 years old and he likes to play with his brother :)
  I am, the father of the family, and living with my children together. We have also an assistant for homework in our house. I have a company and do e-commerce so especially I don't have to go for work to a specific place.
  We like traveling, camping, cooking, baking, gardening, eating, and singing together as a family.
  We especially like to go to beaches, mountains, ruins, plateaus, and museums.
  We do not smoke. We have a small Pekingese as our 4 th kid :) She is very quite.

  Alojamiento

  If you come to live with us, you will have your own bed but not a special room. (we have 3 bedrooms in our house) We can also give you basic things like towels (so you don't have to add them in your luggage) and also you can use our washing machine. You will have unlimited Wi-Fi. We usually cook fresh traditional foods at home, you can be with us at all meals and also you may cook if you want. If you are introverted, we are respectful of your need for alone time every day (your room is upstairs). We have no problem with how you spend your free time.

  Izmir (Smyrna) is a nice city with seashore and historical places. It is the third biggest city in Turkey. The people of Izmir are very helpful and you will feel safe. We live in a suberb called Urla. Our house is 40 minutes far away from the city center by bus and the bus station is 10 minutes by walking. There are many bars, clubs, siteseeing, restaurants, shopping, bazaars etc. in the city center. We are close to seaside, it takes nearly 10 minutes to go to the nearest beach by car. Without car or bus riding, sadly, it is not possible to go anywhere. We may drop you into the city by car, if we have time to do. We have a privet swimming pool at the end of our street which you can also use. We have lots of suggestions and information about things to see and to do. There are a lot of historical places and ancient ruins, if you are interested, near Izmir as Ephesus and Bergama (Pergamon). At the weekends you can travel to Ephesus (St. John Catedral and The House of the Virgin Mary)/Şirince (1 hour far to us) , Pergamon, Çeşme/Alaçatı (30 minutes), Foça, Kuşadası (Neopolis) (1 hour); Bodrum (Halikarnassos), Pamukkale (Hierapolis), Fethiye (Telmessos, Kaunos, Kadyanda, Tlos, Pınara, Letoon, Sidyma ve Ksantos) , Kaş (Istlada, Apollonia, İsinda, Kyaenai), Demre (Myra, Saint Nicholas), Antalya, İstanbul, Kapadokya (Cappadocia) etc. In order to go to all those places, you can use public transport which is pretty affordable. If you want to go to Kios (a Greek Island) from Çeşme shipport, it takes 20 minutes by ship and it is also cheap. If you want to go to Samos (another Greek Island) you may get a ferry (it is also cheap). We can help you to arrange holiday plans and about bookings.
