ABOUT ME

Well, it is a work in progress but I can say these briefly:

Born 27 years ago. Went to 7 different primary school, lived in 16 different house. Studied Translation&Interpreting in Istanbul. Lived in Amsterdam for 6 months. Took cheap buses, hitch-hiked, travelled across Europe with a backpack. Now living in Leipzig. I love beer and a hearty conversation. I like telling stories. I am not a very serious woman being. I like to talk, listen and dance.

I don't have respect for those who do not respect others who are not like them. Having said that I respect humor the most, so there are very few things that would offend me. Believing that nothing is static what I want for myself is to lead a happy(ish) life. I want many more things when it comes to other people, though. Current uprisings around the world and new ways of dissent have shown us that another world is not only possible but it is urgently required.

In future I want to read, write and travel and it would be amazing if I was paid for doing these.

PHILOSOPHY

“The plain fact is that the planet does not need more successful people. But it does desperately need more peacemakers, healers, restorers, storytellers, and lovers of every kind. It needs people who live well in their places. It needs people of moral courage willing to join the fight to make the world habitable and humane. And these qualities have little to do with success as we have defined it.”
