Tag #125392 - Interview #97653 (Rebeka Evgin)

My son was grown up too then.  One morning when I went to work, I left the siblings at home arguing.  The two siblings got along well usually.  That morning they started verbally arguing about an insignificant, small thing.  In reality it was a period when my nerves were really wrought.  I told my son not to be lazy.  When I returned home in the evening, I saw my son with a bundle of money in his hand.  I asked “What is this money?”.  “I started working”, he said.  He decided to become a tourist guide.  His first job was to take tourists to the Dardanelles [a city on the Aegean coast, where the Dardanelles strait connects the Marmara Sea to the Aegean.  The Dardanelles strait divides Turkey into European and Asian sides just like the Bosphorus].  The firm where he worked had given him the hotel and excursion money for the tourists.  In this way he earned his living by being a guide for a long time and continued his studies.  During this time he got engaged and broke up once.  The girl he got engaged to had different expectations about life. The discord between them ended with separation.  He married the granddaughter of my uncle Sami.
