I studied Graphic Design (3 years in Bilkent University, 1 year at the University of Michigan) and worked for a year in a design studio in Istanbul. After that I started living in Italy to get a master degree. You can see my work at http://cenk.it

Traveling for me is a way to learn about the world, stay fresh and keep myself motivated for work. I also like taking photos while I am traveling like most people :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Skiing, sleigh riding and snowmobiling on Colorado Mountains, scuba diving in Fethiye, driving on Transfagarasan Road, paragliding in Ölüdeniz, ballooning in Capadocia, windsurfing in Istanbul, surfing in Australia, ice-skating on the frozen rivers of Québec City, and some Greek islands I have visited were simply amazing to me.

Teach, Learn, Share

Meeting people from different backgrounds is a great way to learn about the world.
