CURRENT MISSION

Live it well.

ABOUT ME

I am an ordinary person on his journey in the period of time which is called life. I try to fulfill it with joyful and meaningful moments, as well as embracing bad ones. I try to feel the life, not just analyze it for a better living. I try to create emotions that makes me feel alive.

I taste life. (and some music too..)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

You cannot always go to different places, this is a way for me to make different places come to me.

Interests

I am a kind of person who does not want to have any spare time. I mean if I had time to watch TV, it means that I did something wrong. I like sports, play basketball in my company's team, run, sail, work-out and do yoga. Lately, I started to dive. I like indie and alternative rock, classical and electronical music to listen and deep house, tech house, progressive to dance. I play the guitar not as good as Jimmy Hendrix, but better than my last year. I write a blog about album reviews that I listened and liked (sorry, in Turkish- www.muziginyolhali.com). Also I share my own songs on it.

All of a sudden, I really enjoy to drive my car somewhere near the city that I have never been. Especially if I bought a new album cd.

And nature... That's all i need...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

In a sailing competition, we left the port before sunset. It was going to be a long race. After 2-3 hours, the sun set in the west at our starboard/right hand side. We sailed all night long. 8-9 hours later, the same sun (surprised?) risen from the east at our port/left hand side. It was the moment that I most got close to feel the cosmos.

Teach, Learn, Share

Well, I can teach you some yoga maybe and how to play the guitar or how to make a lamp out of milk boxes :)

And after 10 years in Istanbul, I know some special places to share in the city.
