About Me

I am 20 years old university student from Istanbul who loves travelling more than everything. I am obsessed with yoga and meditation and I am approaching these as not only a type of exercise but also a life philosophy. I love exploring new countries and cultures and I know that best way to do this is a making friends from these cultures. Thats what I am here for! I believe in the power of stories, I think its the only thing people truly can have after all so I am always excited to hear new stories. I am respectful to all genders and lifestyles, you can be sure. I am very interested in philosophy , especially with enlinghtenment era, so I can talk about it a lot. Dont worry, I am not suddenly starting to talk about philosophy, I know a lot of people find it boring :)
I have never said no to good food and I can make delicious Turkish cuisine. The reason that I dont have any references is simply because I am new at CS , and I think I should start somewhere!
