About Me

I graduated from university in this June from psychology department. I'm a young trainer in youth field. I've been doing projects, activities, seminars etc. in NGOs working with disadvantaged groups especially people with disabilities, children and women. I'm involving events and activities for doing disability activism. I'm also writing in an online journal. I love writing, it opens my mind and makes me feel more confident by making decesions and acting. I'm planning to start to work as a psychology and doing my master at the same time. And I enjoy learning new languages so much :)

Music, Movies, and Books

I love classical jazz and ethnic music at most, but I can listen to other kind of music that sounds good for me in pleasure. And I like learning and knowing different point of views and realities, that's why books are one of my best friends.

For authors I like reading Amin Maalouf, Umberto Eco, Gabriel Garcia Marquez, Jean Chrostof Grange, Tezer Özlü and so on...

For music I like listening: Bach, Schubert, Gershwin, Sttrauss, Rachmanninoff, Kate Rusby, Joan Baez, Lara Fabian, Frank Sinatra, Emilie-Claire Barlow, Lorena McKennitt.

Movies & Series: Black Mirror, Interstellar, Winter Sleep, My Fair Lady, Vertigo, Birds, Melancholia, Clockwork Orange.
