At the first day of our journey I met with Jagoda at Hayderpasa station in Kadikoy, Istanbul. I took a nightbus from Ankara and she had her flight from Berlin.
We went by train to Gebze and later went by ferry to Topcular. At the second bank of the Marmara Sea we started to hitchhike and nice turkish policeman from Interpol took us to Manisa, only 40km far from Izmir.

Our driver could speak Russian so when we didn't know a word in Turkish we tried to find proper one in Russian, perhaps they are similar to polish ones. It was very nice ride.
In the evening we got to Izmir-Bornova and met our hosts - Hakan and Bahriye, the owners of adorable Labrador - Limon:)
They live in a very well-designed house which we really liked. As they told us they rebuilt it from scratches. Our hosts were very hospitable and kind for us, so we could sleep in royal conditions after tiring day.
