Defne's first road trip was a picturesque drive from San Francisco to the enchanting Napa Valley - a tough one to beat!

After living in different European countries, Defne moved to Virginia and fell in love with America's breathtaking wilderness before moving back to the UK.

When Defne is not behind the wheel, she enjoys listening to jazz albums and cooking with her husband, with their two Pomeranians acting as little sous-chefs.
