About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To live without boundaries, try to break my own chains, challenge myself, get know people .. trust people and learn a new things at each day
ABOUT ME
Hi there, hey people !
I'm addicted to discover new things and getting new experiences... I love cycling, the nature, ancient and modern culture, making friends and drinking god-gifted herbs (various tea) and playing chess !
Generally I'm very talkative guy and totally open-minded person. I don't have any prejudices about people (ok ok maybe some but I try to avoid ), societies or cultures.. I always respect to mentality of people, respect their thinking-way (only exception for ideologies like racism , apartheid.. etc. )
I study Computer Science and Economics in Istanbul (it was a magical city but it has now massive problems) , I was born there and also I've lived in there with my parents more than 20 years. But I've found that time is more than enough for one country and one city.. so I decided to go and live in another Country after when I finished my bachelor in CS. Now I'm living in Tallinn, Estonia. And probably after some time I will move in another country !
I like to visit special corners of cities, chilling at there and spend good time with my friends.. also I believe that I'm a talented cook, at least so far nobody poisoned or died because of my recipes :)
Cycling and ice-skating (actually I don't have enough experiences for it ) my favorite sport-hobbies, after my Erasmus in Finland, I became an ice-hockey fan. And finally conversely to many scientist people, I find historic issues are very interesting and I really enjoy to read about history.
Everytime I try to improve my English, Russian and German communacation skills but I don't find them still good-enough. And I'm enthusiastically interesting in Slavic Culture , I would like to speak their languages in the future (probably Russian).
PHILOSOPHY
Ilhanism , it's the best way for me. Cause I believe everyone has or should has its own way to live ..
And Ilhanism appreciate and support all of those following things: Charlie Chaplin, Rock & Rolls, Independent Cinema, Liberty, Sleeping, Social equality, French cusine, Red Heads and Pizza :)
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
It's best way to meet new friends from around the world..
Interests
I like cooking ,still I'm trying to improve my own cooking skills. I like singing also and listen almost all kind of music.. I'm very interested in learning about diffierent cultures and languages. I'm some kind of movie-obsessive person because I'm interested in cinematography and I write somethings screenplayes , some poets and essays also. I love the history, I can talk about history through many hours.. but some people could find that boring, so it's better to keep my bla bla bubles inside :D I'm ok for hanging out in night clubs/pubs for a couple of drinks but I'm totally not an party animal.
