Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
I'll be travelling to Serbia and Bosnia on 28th Dec to 3rd Jan with my friend. Any hints, couches, meet ups are welcome!
-
Living in a highly crowded city makes you feel like you are constantly missing something in the rush. So I'm teaching myself to slow down. Stop and listen to the sound of the city, see (if not, create) the beauty in minor things, focus on the feelings. Stay human. Appreciate the earth, water, fire and air.
ABOUT ME
I'm easy going, social, like to take pictures, love cats, concerned about environment, love nature, have crazy wine red curly hair.
PHILOSOPHY
Every second you spend means something, never live your live your life like you are filling your days. And always remember the steps you have taken.

Interests
Cycling around the city. Drink a bottle of beer when lying on the grass. Try to pet cats that I see on the streets. Search sustainable solutions for everything and say to myself "yes I should do this and that and that". Interior architecture. Thinking. Dreaming. Making my dreams become real. Reading. Fantasy. Walking spontaneously in a foreign city. Details. Taking photographs. Talking to people i don't know. Observing. Trying foreign cuisine.

Music, Movies, and Books
I think I enjoy more when there are fantastic elements in it. Or deeper meanings and questioning. For movies, my favourite is The Fall (this choice still hasn't changed for years!) . And I love animations.
For music, I listen generally rock/indie. Other than that, I like smooth, calm guitar&vocal songs, trip hop, electronica and and folk music.
For books, I'm trying to read anything i can get. But my best writers are İhsan Oktay Anar, Gabriel Garcia Marquez and Sabahattin Ali.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Travelling basically amazes me every time so i don't know which moment to choose. Purple sunset over cold winter snow in Belgium, view of far away lands from Erciyes Mountain in Turkey, lots of falling stars in a starry night in Hortobagy...
Teach, Learn, Share
I can teach how to do wrapping hair. And teach some little poi. And many things about Turkish culture of course :)
