About Me

freeing mind and body, soul, respecting everybody, every entity, poetry, sun rise and tides of the river, movies, philosophy, music, history of music, photographs, paintings, images of all kind...

trying to settle my mind into what I am having at the moment, sometimes I make, sometimes I cannot but this is going and no one can stop.

used to work in the film industry and I quit.

take photographs. Like to look at them but I am very shy to share them.

not sure is it about shyness or something other than that. I am personally a quiet, introverted man. This is because all of the 'unfortunate' feelings that I cannot express which emerge suddenly when I am a high schooler.

love to see people who love themselves and love others and love everything no matter what.

wrote a lot. I have many notebooks.

tried to find a way out while I was writing. And I draw sometimes. Like to draw and paint very much.

my writings is mostly about me, how a me like me became a me like me, sometimes when I read them, I see how I had thought when I had read. and unfortunately my thoughts does not seem consistent most of the time and I may link this to the way we live in this world right now, so many little things to buy and consume and pass on to another.

...

would like to write more but they call for breakfast.

some other time I could write more to complete the things about me if it is possible :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Meeting new people, learn about their culture is very precious, you may comprehend the world around you better this way.

Interests

I’m interested in sociology of countries and the world. Religions, faith(s) of the world I am very interested in. I’m a traveler and to learn more about this subject, I traveled to India, Nepal last year and just came from Japan and Korea.

And also I am interested in art, movies, paintings, statues... All of them... I adore all the things which tell me something, which is beautifully crafted, which is moving.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like to listen to Classical Music a lot. I followed an online course on classical music and the I admired the value of the music, not only the classical but all genres. I recommend 'Introduction to Classical Music' course on Coursera.org

Which musicians I listen to:
J. S. Bach
T. Albinoni
L. Stokowski
H. von Karajan
Hildur Gudnadsdottir
Olof Arnalds
Vikingur Olafsson
Woodkid
Nils Frahm

and if we move on to the literature; Dostoevsky and Chekhov, I repeatedly read.
My favorites;
Demons, Dostoevsky
And All Strories of Chekhov.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Realized (even) the thin air has so many aspects in it. I am now writing a screenplay for a feature movie with a story writer friend, the movie will be called ‘Air’.
