Burcin's theme in life is "take a risk" and "rise up." She learned this from her family who opened a restaurant in Istanbul, Turkey when she was a girl. Her father, mother and brother ran the restaurant while she looked after her younger brother, even directly following the earthquake of 1999. They served many wonderful things like the dishes pictured below. These are foods she loves that make her feel proud of her family and connected to her home.
Burcin came to Maine in 2017 with her husband Burhan to study at Southern Maine Community College. She takes education and art classes there while living in Old Orchard Beach. Her artwork is currently hanging at UMVA gallery as part of the Migration Experience show. FMI: Click here.
Music: Athena sings "Everything Is Going To Be Alright" or "Her Sey Guzel Olacak."
