Toprak: “I had only one neighbor, Aunt Ayşe. She was okay with the idea. She was even happy to have a neighbor but her sons found it so strange. I mean why would I leave Istanbul and come here? Come to a mountain top? We had conversations like yes it’s normal to come to a village but not to a mountain. Only my grandmother didn’t like it, she was alive back then. She couldn’t accept the fact that I chose to live on a mountain top at that age, she didn’t like it.”
