About Me

My classes are really hard. I have final exams at the and of juneand I don't know if I should study or learning Japanese because they probably need the same amount of effort. Sure I'm not careless about sparing time to music, amusement, having fun with friends, and self-actualizing.

I am a fan of Besiktas Gymnastic Club. It's not very important which club you are supporting, but to support a sports club gives you the chance to find common ground and be united with people of different ethnicity, cultures and the economic situations. These kind of feelings make the world more liveable. The end of a sporting event is like an art as Turkish writer Murat Mentes says. That is why even our president, as a world leader calls himself lesser than BJK football player Mario Gomez.

I think following an idea radically and to be attached to any idea without questioning are the biggest dangers for our planet. The worst part of living in Turkey is being around many by people like this. On the other hand, Turkey has many historical, cultural and natural places. Wherever you live, you should come to İstanbul and visit Asia and Europe via ferry for just 0.3 euro. It's an entertaining country if you are not citizen of Turkey. So you should come to visit. I will be pleased to entertain you.

You will like me if u meet me.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think visiting new places really develops a persons vision and culture.Couch is an application that provides this without spending much money.Also,you can see new cultures and meet new peoples with entertaining people.

Interests

As Bernard Russell says ' We live in a world where alternatives are limited'.I think people adapt to the world better than people who don't like strawberries.This is why I think you should be curious about everything.Any other way life becomes boring.If I should criticize,I can't deepen on one topic.I like expressing things through literature and almost all branches of art.

I write interviews of a literature magazine as a volunteer.To be honest,it's pretty popular in Turkey.I do many branches of sport-tennis,badminton,table tennis,swimming,chess,basketball and football.I once played chess and was licenced.

Music, Movies, and Books

I pull out my phone and show my playlist when someone asks me about my music preference.I listen to different kinds of music and take pleasure in them equally;but still if you asked me to choose,one genre I would say indie.I feel like I would save the world if I melodize the song ' Do I Wanna Know' by the band Arctic Monkeys.I suggest the singer Teoman to you if you have never heard Turkish songs before.

I am not an assertive cinephile, but I'm a real fan of Quentin Tarantino.I also like most films with actor Woody Allen.Titanic,American Beauty,Interstellar,Good Will Hunting and The Pianist are all good films.For strangers,I suggest all films of Nuri Bilge Ceylan but especially 'Once Upon a Time in Anatolia'

I like to read journalism.It's enjoyable to read journalism as well as write it.I find identifying and inspiring,I can say that Cuneyt Ozdemir and Can Dundar are good journalists that adress the issues, As for world literature I like Gabriel Garcia Marquez and Dostoyevski.I also enjoy cartoons,Yigit Ozgur and Umut Sarıkaya are good cartoonistin my opinion
