About Me

I currently live in tofino, vancouver island. I am able host people who has sail boat experiences, a few days at a time, once or twice in a month. In case high sailing experienced guests staying can be longer with the change of teaching sailing.

I worked as business analyst in IT sector for 6 years in Turkey. Since i ve moved in Canada i ve worked in so many different areas and different places such as cleaning, gardening, restaurants ( summarily i do whatever i find for money ) due to bring life my experimental projects. I had work exchange and communal houses/ communities experiences for about 9 years.

I made body and spirit care products for 8 years to express my care to earth after apprenticing in an apothecary in Toronto. Even though I dont market any products anymore, I still make some of my care and cleaning products.

Currently, I work in a ocean friendly clothing and printing shop to sustain my new project that I develop vegan leather party stuff or daily goodies( it totally depends what you wear beach walk) out of kombucha scoby.

Beside many art forms like photographing and painting i also love dancing and raving, and enjoy social and self awareness focused talks and experiences.
