The 13th of our talk series “I am new to İzmir and …” took place on Tuesday, May 21st with the participation of our guests Gül and Güneş in İzmir Mediterranean Academy.

Güneş shared with us her transition from her quiet life in Assos to the lively life of Izmir. She stated that she returned to metropolitan life due to the ease of access to cultural events. She also touched upon both the positive and negative aspects of cycling in İzmir. While she said that it is more difficult to get around the city by bike than before, she pointed out the convenience of being able to ride public transportation by bike.

After her experiences in Ankara and Istanbul, Gül opened a new page in life in Izmir. She stated that she established closer and deeper relationships with people in İzmir. The İzmir adventure had a positive impact on her, with the warmth of the weather reflecting upon people.
