With two big suitcases, one with clothes and another one with makeup, I found myself staying in the middle of Istanbul International Airport. I was alone, firstly because my family is still having some things to solve in Germany, and secondly because I have to figure where would we live. Speaking of my parents, I took the phone and called them immediately after I arrived, I didn't want them to be worried. After looking desperately for a sign, I saw my name written on a paper. Thank You, God, that the crew was good and send me a person that will meet me, otherwise, it will be hell. In front of me was a beautiful girl with brown hair and very stylish. I approached to her.
"Merhaba, you must be Mellady?"she asked.
"Hi!" I said slapping myself mentally for not even being able to say hello in Turkey.
"...yes it's me, and what is your name?"
"I am Elif Aksu"
"So nice to meet you Elif, and thank you for meeting me, otherwise I would take a flight back to Frankfurt," I said laughing ironically because I really thought about doing it.
"Oh, no problem I am more than happy, so let's go now!" She said happy and start to walk by this guiding me outside. All of a sudden my face was hit by the sun, I felt like my skin was messing this touch. Elfi stopped in front of a Lexus, she helped me to put the things in her car and we start the road.
"So Elif, how it is working around the stars?"
"Aa, I don't think it's such a big deal, I am assistant, I do whatever they want, but I like that the people I am working with are sweethearts, normal people like us, nothing too much."
" Yeah, you are definitely right, it is important to be human no matter what."
"Exactly, by the way, how do you feel about being stylist of this project?"
"It seems unreal for me, first of all, because I didn't expect for me to be the chosen one, and secondly it will be really exciting."
"Yeah, we have to go through a lot, but it will be fun ."
"Hope so too."
After a good time of talking she arrived in front of the hotel, I am gonna stay at. Well that's till I will find the flat for my family, and this has to be solved within two weeks, otherwise, it's bad. The name of the hotel is Crowne Plaza Istanbul - Old City. Elif came with me at informational point, helped me to solve all the things, moreover, she helped me with the suitcase, such an adorable girl. The flat is a nice one, not too big or small, just enough for some days. This consists of a living room, bedroom and of course bathroom.

„Okay, now we have to go through our schedule for tomorrow really quick," said Elfi, while both of us sat on the sofa in the living room.
„As you say"
"Good, so at 8 o'clock we must be at the office, then they will decide when we should go to Mugla. I can't give you more information, because I don't know it as well, I guess tomorrow everything that is unclear will become clear."
"No problem Elif, you did a lot for me already."
"No problem, this is my pleasure, oh and don't worry about tomorrow, I gonna came to give you a ride."
"Omg, but you don't have to, I already bothered you too much."
"I don't want to hear it again, I want it, so be ready at 7:30, okay?"
"Okay"
"For now I'm leaving, so you can rest a bit, see you tomorrow," she said and hugged me.
"See you!"
After Elif went home, I went quickly to do a shower. I felt exhausted, but not in a bad way. After a good bath, I was already in my bed talking with my parents. I knew that a good part of the time we will film in Mugla, so I discussed with some owners that do offer flats in rent. I was discussing with my family which flat did they like the most and so on. I also told them that tomorrow probably is the day when we will be the full cast, which is exciting, even when you do know that by somehow you are making part of this too. At the same time I know that this is gonna be so difficult because I don't know the language, I hope Elif is gonna help me. In Germany it was 21:54, it means that in Turkey it is 23:54, I felt that my eyes are becoming heavy, that's why I told my family that I love them and I do miss them and we said good night for each other.
