About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To drive myself to meet new people, face new challenges and make new work

ABOUT ME

my photographs make me look serious but I just cant seem to smile in photographs!

I am an exchange student at Bahçeşehir University. I study Photography at Syracuse University in Upstate New York but I am originally a native of the bizarre liberal hamlet known as Berkeley, CA. I enjoy a good beer or coffee, a smoke and a long conversation, I enjoy going to galleries and concerts. I have a specific love for transport of all kinds and find the state of movement on trams, trains, buses and planes to be relaxing.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm a portrait photographer and would enjoy making your portrait (if you're not camera shy). Unfortunately I can't host anyone at the moment because my Dorm building doesnt allow it. If someone needs help around town who's visiting I can help (Though I dont really speak Turkish)
