About the Guide
Hi, I'm Yns born and raised in Istanbul. I've been a history enthusiast since my childhood. Thanks to my historical knowledge, I've always been known as someone intellectual. After my high school education, I decided my major in history as well. My first university is Art History. There I got the chance of learning artistic parts of Istanbul. Later on, I decided to share that historical and artistic information of mine with others. Consequently, I enrolled in my second university, Tourist Guide. Now that I got an education about how to share those knowledge and the ethics of my profession with a license, I would like to introduce Istanbul's both historical and artistic sides with you .
