One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've bought a flight ticket and ı've gone to Romania for the project. (Aiesec). This was very interesting thing for my life. My mother wanted me to go.. But I said '' I really want to go to Romania and ı really want to do this project''. I've gone. I come back. I miss Romania. I want to go again but ı have to work in Turkey. That's why I can't go anywhere now. But I will again :)

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach so many things about history of art and photoprahpy. Also ı can teach dance.
I can visit with hosts to museums and ı can tell about the museums and history of Istanbul and Turkey. Normally we are going to any museum and we are looking to murals. But sometimes we dont know and understand. This is the best important thing for me. if ı dont know ı have to search because ı am really wonder about the art and history. İn this situation if you want to go to museum, ı can help gladly.
When ı was in university, I learned history of art. But this is not enough for me. Art is always something to learn..
I'm going to dance course now. 'ım learning Hall dances and Latin dances.
