İzmir is the 3 rd biggest city of Turkey. But it is the most modern and turistic one. It is a seaside city and there is too many historical places which are just one bus away.
In Izmir we have so many bars, clubs, restaurants, shoppingcenters and nature activities. You can ride your bike for hours without living the seaside. If you interested in visiting historical places, Izmir is the city you are looking for. Also our daugters like travelling so maybe they can help you to see these places.
İf you want we can help you to learn basic Turkish and Turkish cooking too.

Wow! Such a lovingly generous and warm hearted family. I was spoilt staying with Ruşen, Nagihan and Gökay. You have a really nice private room with a single bed and a private bathroom, also (loved the shower!!) They were also very flexible with my dates of travelling around Turkey which was a relief. Such a laid back family that wants to share… read more everything with you from their culture to exploring sites together. I came across a few issues which could've potentially made my stay in Turkey difficult but both Nagihan and Ruşen helped me immensely and it reduced a lot of the stress. Nagihan is a great cook so you'll always have great Turkish food, guaranteed.
My time spent with Gökay was simple, he needs time to get to know you so do be patient. He did have some temper tantrums but nothing a little bit of tickling couldn't fix just to calm him down as he gets to know you. I would literally sit with him from 6pm til he would go to bed which was approximately 10.30/11pm. During this time you are also eating dinner and possibly helping to wash up dishes. I would play games and activities with Gökay while speaking English and learning the Turkish translation to ensure he understood. You are not expected to learn Turkish since Nagihan and Ruşen are usually around to help if need be. Gökay has some favourite tv shows that are a must to watch so I would watch it with him and point out animals, colours or objects in English. When Gökay gets to know you, he is soo affectionate and loving. He is very creative and loves drawing and painting. We made some origami, masks and played with puzzles. You have freedom to do whatever activity you think he would like so long as you speak English in order for him to learn some new words. He's very smart and has an opinion on everything, which is adorable. Otherwise, running around and screaming is also fun. He loves singing and dancing as well.
Nagihan and Ruşen live about 30mins by bus from the centre and there are some nice running/walking tracks nearby that take you up the mountains for amazing views of Izmir. The seafront is about a 20min walk and the main street of shops and restaurants (buses) is literally 5mins down the road. Also, the minibus (make sure to confirm with the driver) takes you a door down from their apartment which is very handy when you have heavy luggage like me.
I highly recommend this family. They are respectful of your own time and I was mostly indoors editing but when out at night, they had no issues with me returning at a stupid hour of the night so long as I wasn't drunk which is understandable. Such a relaxed family who are just full of love so if you are going to Izmir, make sure to contact Ruşen!! These guys are literally like family to me. ADORE THEM! Go have fun!!
