ABOUT ME

I'm an English at the university in Trabzon and prior to that I lived in a village in north-west Georgia for a year. As consequence I only eat hamsi, hazelnuts and persimmons. Before that I studied literature in the other Georgia (USA) and Heidelberg (Deutschland). I've traveled some other places too (cf below). I will let the other blanks speak for themselves. I don't like to ramble on.
