Hi! I’m Ela 🤍

I create content and guides inspired by Istanbul — its neighborhoods, food, views, everyday life, and hidden corners.

I share the city as I experience it: locally, thoughtfully, and through the little details that make Istanbul feel so special.

My goal is to help you experience Istanbul beyond the usual tourist spots — with curated recommendations, practical tips, beautiful routes, and places genuinely worth discovering.

Here you can:

• Support my creative journey

• Find my curated Istanbul guides, maps & routes

• Discover more of Istanbul through a local perspective

Thank you for being here and exploring Istanbul with me 🤍
