About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To enjoy my last years as a student in the heart of Europe and to see as many new places as possible and meet new people.

ABOUT ME

I am a student from Istanbul, living in Switzerland who wants to enjoy the last few years before having a full-time job and use the opportunity to travel around Europe and meet new people. As a kid, I grew up with an atlas between my hands and my favourite childhood activity was staring at the pages trying to memorize the capitals, flags or cities of the countries. Now as I see those places which I once was looking at in my room, I feel as if I am paying tribute to my childhood. Besides, I am passionate about almost all kinds of sports and usually catch myself commentating while watching a sports game =] I like to go to the concerts and music festivals, and I often feel awkward when I notice that there is no music playing on in my room.

PHILOSOPHY

My philosophy of life is trying to keep peaceful and avoid anything that can make you uncomfortable. I believe that a day spent with a few best friends or family is the most valuable gift.
