Cultures, literature, food, life stories, languages...

Since I was a little kid in a small town far from the big world, I always have been attracted by meeting new, interesting, and fascinating people! Hearing about the outer world and foreign countries kept amazing me. I remember myself turning the pages of the world atlas curiously. The flags, currencies, borders, languages, and continents always made my heart beat fast. Since then I explore the world, visit new countries and cities, learn their languages and interact with the locals. So far I lived a long deal of my life in Turkey, the United States, Germany, Italy and now in Spain. But I never gave up on my dream and visited Switzerland, Lichtenstein, Austria, Serbia and many others. During my trips I highly pay attention spending time with the locals, enjoying their amazing food, experiencing and practicing their customs. Just FYI: One of my dreams is writing a book while traveling around the world!

Hey-hey, why not be my new friend?! Amaze me with your stories! Believe me I have tons of questions to ask! Let's start with one: what is happiness to you exactly?

Warm, warm, warm regards my new friend!

Olsen.
