[RV] We even had an interview in Hagia Sofia, which was fascinating. It was really funny. It was with Denise, me… what’s her name?
[DSB] Zaha Hadid.
[RV] Zaha Hadid, who was a vital enemy.
[DSB] And Süha Özkan.
[RV] Süha Özkan is a dear friend, and the guy… the American. You know the American guy?
[DSB] I can’t remember who it was.
[RV] It was…
[DSB] Peter Isen?
[RV] Peter Isen yeah, they were all so friendly, it was sort of weird.
[DSB] And I was sitting there in that… in Hagia Sofia and thinking, when I was a little girl in Johannesburg, did I ever think I’d be on television sitting in Hagia Sofia. It’s a funny thought. And then, we were asked to do a very nice thing. The American Embassy had been asked to help support… Süha Özkan is a great leader… architectural leader and he organised this. He works for the Aga Khan… he was then… and he organises support, so, he asked for donations. So, the American Embassy’s donation was to give scholarships to it… to a group of Turkish students from rural areas, who couldn’t afford to go on their own. And then they asked us to come and have lunch with these students and talk with them – as another offering from the American Embassy – to these students. So, we sat out in a tent in the grounds of the fair and we had a nice lunch and we all talked. There were about 25 of them, I think, and they weren’t as… I think, I suspect they weren’t as poor and anywhere naïve as maybe people thought they were. They were just from out of town. But anyway, what I tried to do was think of myself as also having been from out of town and what could I say to them, because I’d had good opportunities, it’s true, but I also used them. And if I’d had a mental outlook which said, I’m from out of town, I couldn’t have done all of that.
