Welcome to our blog! Our little family consists of Meryem (38), husband Arthur (40), Femke (3 years) and baby Lente. We live in Cairo, Egypt since mid September 2009. VillaJanse refers to our house we built in the countryside of Urla, near Izmir in Turkey. We lived in Turkey for 6,5 years before moving to Egypt.

The beach
A few weeks ago friends from Holland came to Kusadasi for a week holiday... We spent 5 days with them, proudly showing the best places in Izmir as well.
They had brought their 2 daughters with them, Tess 3 yrs old and Robin 6 yrs. Femke was quite impressed by these talkative and happy ladies.
The "Starbucks experience" is always a success.
Here on the right 2 men and 3 ladies...
The Starbucks in Kusadasi is on a great location facing the Bird Island and the sea. Our friend Dimitri drank for the first time in his life a Frappuchino Caramel with whipped cream and loved every sip of it.
The beach in Kusadasi has improved a lot the last
years. It is clean and well managed. For Femke it is nice to play in the sand but the high waves make it less fun for her to sit close to the sea. I think she enjoyed the swimmingpool in our hotel better as she could walk around there.
