I was born and bred in Istanbul, Turkey and I am of Armenian / Sabbateanist (Jewish) origin. I live in Oxford since 2007 as I studied my Bachelor's Degree in social sciences at Ruskin College of Oxford University. I did double Master's Degree in international studies at both Warwick University (UK) and Nanyang Technological University (Singapore). Apart from studies, I am keen on writing as I like writing short stories, poems, novel and self-help books, etc. I have published my first poetry book in Turkish language, in Turkey, called "The Poems of Revolt". Currently, I am in process of writing my fiction novel in English and hope to publish it soon. I sometimes share my philosophical writings on social media.

I am really interested in politics (both global and local scales) and often critical of most of policies (as I dissented from mainstream views). I like playing football, watching documentaries, smoking hookah, reading news articles, learning languages, travelling new places, meeting interesting people, discovering the world :)

In the future, I would like to learn cooking, fine art (painting and drawing), moviemaking, dancing.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I would like to meet more people in order to exchange and share knowledge and experiences. I believe everyone has a story worth to listen
