| Jobs or... Since june 1997, I am working at differents international festivals of Istanbul as "hospitality assistant". What does it mean ? Well each time there is a festival, I, on my own or with others, am responsable of some gues, musician, artist or else. From the moment they arrive to Istanbul to the moment they leave, I have to be with them during their "job" at the festival, so especially at the back stage, but also at other moments if they need help.
