In this episode of the series of those who escape from the city, Seda and Umut Soyoğlu, who ran away from corporate life and founded Hayal Bahçesi in Birgi village of Ödemiş district of İzmir, and their daughter Hayal. The Soyoğlu couple, who worked as managers in corporate companies for years, decided that a healthy family life could not be sustained with the tempo in Istanbul and hit the Aegean roads. The road they set out on to do something together brought them to Birgi, one of the best tourism villages in the world. They first tried farming on the land they bought. However, this did not last long. They came to Birgi without a plan, without a program, and without knowing what to do, and now they are running the 14-acre Hayal Bahçesi. In addition to different accommodation concepts, they host boutique organizations. Hayal, who came to Birgi at the age of 1.5, now goes to a village school and grows up surrounded by animals and nature. Seda and Umut, who are still amazed by the courage they showed, say that they now enjoy Istanbul, which they visit a few times a year, more.
