ABOUT ME
Don't know what I'm looking for or if I'll ever find it, but I do know it's not going to fall into my lap.
Little about me; born in the US to Turkish parents, excelled at sports, math and language in school.
A bit of govt work and small business with family after that. English teacher for last two years in Istanbul.
PHILOSOPHY
Don't know what I'm looking for or if I'll ever find it, but I do know it's not going to fall into my lap.
I'm open to the chance experiences. Saying yes to invitations instead of finding excuses to say no.
Everyone has something to offer just as you have something for them. Just share!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
To me, the most amazing thing is coming to a new land and making life long friends. When it hits you, at a cafe or at a party, and you look around at these people and realize what you have, you will know what it means to be rich.
Teach, Learn, Share
I think I have a unique philosophy on life. A balanced expectation between reality and the impossible.
I am happy to share my life story with the expectaion you may learn something by seeing the choices I've made and why I do the things i do.
