Get off at the last stop, you will be at Bostanci Iskelesi, then less than 10min walk to my home

FROM "SUBURBAN" areas on the Asian side:
The new M5 is running.
It is VERY CONFUSING when exiting this train station.
You must get off at the stop "BOSTANCI"
and you must
EXIT at "BOSTANCI MAHALLESI"
THere is a sign. Otherwise you will get off on the far other sides.
From here:
Walk out, you will be in a quiet part of a neighborhood and around a parking lot.
Walk straight ahead, you will only see one way to go.
This will take you down Kozyagtai Sokagi (Sokak...??)
(NOT THE DISTRICT!)
You will take a walk down the street, pass Central Hospital,keep walking...
Then you will reach the Blue Mini Bus Road, its the first major road you will come to.
From here, turn left, and keep walking , then you will reach my home.
TAKSI from M5 Bostanci Mahalessi Exit- 4-5tl.

This is to save the date while we finalize our plan.

We will have an Ebru instructor here for 6 of us.... well 6 of you! and +1 helper as I will be there to assist with the event.

Tea and food will be arranged.

Cost is 30tl / per person.... tentatively***

There will be no profit made on this event and will only collect money so we will not be at a loss from our own pockets!
Ebru material is no inexpensive but will generously be provided by our instructor which enables a low cost for you to attend.
and food is involved ;)
Tea, coffee, and non-alcoholic drinks will be continuous.
