Hey, I am Kaan. I was born in İstanbul and grew up in Kadıköy/İstanbul. I'm 23 years old. I studied journalism in İstanbul University. Most importantly, I am Fenerbahçe fan who hates modern football.

I am a open-minded person and I am very curious about new cultures. I love making new friends from all around the world. I also enjoy deep conversations about cultures and history. So if you'll meet me, be ready to be asked many questions about your culture and history. :))

Even if I'm not able to host you sometimes, I'll be glad to answer your questions about İstanbul and Turkish culture. Please don't hesitate to ask any question.
