Our largest family reunion. Most of the Ottoman family members (plus a few friends) were present. We got together at  Dolmabahçe Palace, in Istanbul, on September 19th, 2006.

I'm sitting on my heels, in the front row between my girlfriend, Hélène, on my right, and my cousin, Fethiye Nami, on my left

All at the left, all dressed-up in black, stands Mrs. Kerime Senyücel, who organized this happening for the Turkish television.

Right behind Fethiye, stands my cousin and famous writer, Her Highness Princess Kenize Mourad
