Her favourite Turkish-based movie is Kış Uykusu (written by Nuri Bilge Ceylan); her favourite Turkish food is Keşkek; and her favourite place in Türkiye is Denizli, where she lives. She writes of the city in southwestern Türkiye, "It's small, yet it has everything I need. It's not crowded and it's green. It is close to well-known destinations such as Alaçat and Bodrum. Pamukkale, the world's eighth wonder, is located in Denizli."
