Albina isn't rare name, but it is more prevalent in Turkic regions here. I guess she may be Tatar or related. That also may explain why she learned Turkish, it is much easier for her.

Turkey is very popular tourist destination, and also business partner (in construction, for example), so there is nothing strange that someone form Russia learns Turkish language.

Here is the random photo that I've took near my work in past.
