Hi, my name is Ogulcan_Y

Localhost since Sep 11, 2020

About

Hey! My name is Ogulcan(OG shortly). I am a passionate sports fan. I have been to over 100 national and international stadiums all around the world. I have seen major football tournaments like Euro 2016 in France and many away games from Portugal to Georgia.

Since I was born in Kadıköy(hometown of Fenerbahçe Sports Club), Istanbul I am a big fan of Fenerbahçe Sports Club. It is my 17th consecutive season in Fenerbahçe Football stadium with a combined ticket. I am a big follower of both the basketball and football branches of Fenerbahçe. I followed my football team all over Europe for the football games in UEFA tournaments and I have been supporting my basketball team in Euroleague Final Four events located in Berlin, Istanbul, and Belgrade.

I enjoy a lot introducing my team to guests from all around the world and showing them how we live football in Turkey.

If you are foreign especially if you speak English, do not try and get tickets yourself. Use Ogulcan as he will make sure you have a very good experience. I could not recommend anyone better. It was a 10/10 experience with a 10/10 host. His communication and his hospitality was perfect. I have no complaints about his service

Ogulcan was a fantastic host. From the very outset, his communication to us was top class and he made everything very understandable and clear. I appreciate him helping us sort out the Passolig system and it was such a relief knowing he was totally on top of everything. His communication to the group via WhatsApp was really outstanding and helpful. I always felt he was going above-and-beyond what a host normally does to really connect with us all and give us the best experience, from practical tips, to key information, and simple chat. He's a very enthusiastic host who seems to want to share his love of Fenerbahce with the whole world. I really enjoyed his pre-match prp talk / history of the club and its always great to learn more about a club's history, culture, and rivalries. All went well and we enjoyed our time a lot. Thanks again OG!

I would like to say that Ogulcan was the perfect host for my recent trip to Istanbul for the Europa League games in January. He was very knowledgeable and took us to some great bars to drink with the fans pregame, he had some great stories to tell us and guided us to the correct entrance as I purchased upgraded seats which were also great. I would definitely recommend visiting Istanbul and letting Ogulcan take you around as he makes you feel safe and relaxed going to the games

Ogulcan made everything so smooth and organized for our gameday experience. The passolig/security/ticketing system is super complicated so we paid for the tour to cut through the red tape. What we didn't expect was such a passionate and gracious host who connected the game to history, politics, religion, and international relations. We are Fenerbahce fans for life! OG made everything so simple when it could have been anything but that if we had tried to go it alone.

It was the first time that I had the opportunity to watch football in Turkey and I must say I thoroughly enjoyed it. Both hosts did their best to add something extra to the games and they succeeded in doing that. Especially Ogulcan surprised us by giving a presentation on Turkish football in general and specifically on his favourite club Fenerbahce. He told us how football was touching his personal life and those were hilarious stories. The tickets for the games were well organized via the Pasolig system, which you have to apply within the Turkish system. The atmosphere within the stadiums were on a high standard. The noise sometimes was deafening. All in all football in Turkey is recommended for every football fan.
