_________________________________________ tour guides in Istanbul and Turkey offering private tours, tour guide & travel services all around Turkey


Next generation of Kosagans:

Ilayda came first, on March 1996; an angel she was... still is.
Melodi (Melody) was born on April 2007; 11 years after Ilayda !

What can we say... ours is perfect marriage...
being tour guides with heavy schedules, Lale & me... we hardly see eachother.
This may explain why we had to wait for over ten years for our second baby girl !

Till recently, Ilayda either wanted to be a princess or a tour guide. When she was 6, she finally decided to invite the Prince to her birthday party. She had sent two letters… one to Quenn Mother and the second was a personal invitation to the Prince.
These were not imaginary letters… somehow, she managed to find the mailing address of the British Royal Family.
The one she sent to Quenn Elizabeth was a permission letter…
“please let your son accept my invitation”
The second one was to Prince William, saying…
“lets see how real you are”

She never received a reply from the Royal Family. It took her a year to accept the idea ! I cannot forget the time when she said… “Dad, I rather be a tour guide”

Like Mom & Dad, Ilayda is lef-handed.
She speaks very good English and learning French.

Melodi, on the other hand, the time when this web-site was updated, hardly speaks Turkish.
We do not know exactly but we believe she also is left handed. Even from now, we can see that she is totally different than her older sister. She is very active, self minded, straight minded, goes her own way & never looks back… Set her free, she walks for long distances by herself, not daring to look back to check if Mom & Dad are behind.
A funny baby, she is… giving joy to the entire family.

We see the girls as our biggest references in life.
Happy girls, they are… giving meaning to our lives.
