Music, Movies, and Books

I generally like to listen to rock and also southern rock. Sometimes jazz, sometimes pop. Actually I like to listen to music that sounds good ;)

I like to watch romantic comedies, science fictions, dramas etc. but I adore the movies which makes me say "oh my god! How a good connection!" at the end :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I used 20 different types of roller coasters in one day in USA, attended iskeche carnival in Greece, watched happenings in Kiev maiden while people were occupying, traveled from one end to another end of St. Petersburg via metro using 3 connection using my last 20 rubles when the price of a metro coin was 20 rubles.

Teach, Learn, Share

I like to give presents from my country and culture but generally it is not so easy to bring abroad everything you want. So I prefer asking hosts if they know and want anything about my culture. In addition to this, I already offer all the people I met hostage in my place ;)
I can teach some Turkish words of course :) I can speak about GIS (geographic information systems) till morning but I am not sure you want to hear this :D
Raki the Turkish drink. I can share info about its culture :) how the governmental problems are getting solved or how relational problems between couples getting solved or how you start dancing although you were crying one minute ago... Raki magic I can share ;)
