Who knew coffee could be so much fun? - This was one of our favorite activities in Istanbul. Efe was so much fun. We did not reserve the fortune portion, but Efe was willing to play along, looking in our coffee cups, googling what the images mean, and laughing with us.

Success in work and life - Many thanks to Mehmet and Efe for the interesting experience. We brewed nice Turkish coffee, took many photos and videos and made the Turkish fortune telling. I saw the symbols of horse and a girl playing the harf. These symbols mean that I will have success in work and in emotional harmony 😊
