Like old friends

It was one of the best experiences in Istanbul. Özge and I think very much the same way. While she was making me traditional Turkish coffee, we were discussing a lot of questions, similarities and differences related to our cultures. Her fortune-telling was pretty accurate, precise and inspiring. I highly recommend seeing her. Her lovely personality captures everyone's heart for sure.

Operator response

We love that it felt like chatting with an old friend. ☕✨ Coffee, culture, and a little fortune-telling — that’s Özge’s world, and she’s so happy you stepped into it.
