Turkish Mosaic Lamp Workshop review

유럽지구에서 워크숍 장소까지 친절하게 동행가이드를 해줍니다(교통비포함). 재미있고 유익한 시간이었어요. 아마도 내가 직접 만든 전등은 터키에서 가져가는 가장 큰 선물이 될 것 같습니다.

Turkish Coffee Making and Fortune Telling Workshop review

There are two locations for this workshop and the one I participated in was in the Asian side. Isra reached out via Whatsapp to make sure that I had the transportation details. She personally met our group at the metro and guided us to the worship. Mehmet taught the class and he was great. I learned about the history and techniques behind Turkish coffee. Even the fortune telling was fun! We were given a small gift bag with our own Turkish coffee cup and saucer and the pot to make the offer in. Highly recommend taking this workshop!

Calligraphy on Glass Workshop review

Die Atmosphäre war wie auch zuvor sehr einladend und ich habe mich sehr willkommen gefühlt. Januar‘24 war ich das erste Mal im Fabrikafa, um eine Mosaiklampe herzustellen. Das war auch eine sehr positive Erfahrung. Und Berşah, die mich mit der Kalligraphie auf Glasmalerei bekannt gemacht hat, war wirklich sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend. Die Zeit ist verflogen! Es hat sehr viel Spaß gemacht, unter künstlerisch so begabten und herzlichen jungen Leuten zu sein. Wenn ich die Zeit finde, werde ich gern noch einige andere Workshops dort besuchen:) Wenn nicht in diesem Urlaub, dann im nächsten, inshaAllah🥰 PS: der Tee war auch seeeeeehr lecker!

Turkish Mosaic Lamp Workshop review

J'ai passé un super moment dans une ambiance chaleureuse ! Nous avons eu des explications complètes sur l'origine de la lampe et de son histoire, ainsi que des explications précises pour chaque étape de la réalisation de la lampe. Notre guide était super, il nous a bien expliqué et il a été très sympathique. Je recommande l'atelier, que ce soit seul ou accompagné ! C'était une excellente façon de clôturer mon voyage à Istanbul.

Turkish Coffee Making and Fortune Telling Workshop review

Molto interessante la parte riguardo la storia del caffè in turchia, sconosciuta ai più. Molto carino il fatto che torni a casa con delle conoscenze in più, ottime da raccontare agli amici mentre prepari ed assapori il caffè turco che hai imparato a preparare durante questo workshop.
