About Me

In my point of view, life is dynamic, spontaneous and changeable. Nothing is stable so nor we should. Making differences, learning new things, exploring/creating/ inventing, that's all the matter. It has no significance for me where do you born or live, nor the belief you have.

Interests

  • camping
  • mountaineering
  • mountains

Music, Movies, and Books

I have wide range of book taste fantasy novels to Russian classics. My favorite writers are Umberto Eco, Ursula Leguin, and Alexandra Dumas. My favorite comic books are Sandman series of Neil Gaiman, and Corto Maltese series of Hugo Pratt.
I like to listen Art Paper, Kenny Burrel, Ella Fitzgerald,Ray Charles,Depeche Mode, Massive Attack,Steve Ray Vaughan..and many more.
I also like to watch films of Sergio Leone, Kubrick, Louis Bunuel, Bertolucci, Woody Allen and Ferzan Özpetek.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I will never forget the one spectacular night at Kaçkar Mountains . Our camp was just on limps of sharp cliffs and a glacier lake. Stars were all over the sky and shone on quiet black surface of the lake. There wasnt any moon nor clouds. Bright crystal clear sky and alone us. Then a meteor shower had began, it was the most amazing that i saw in my life. This moment is still alive with me after all those years. That night we spent the night outside of our tents just near the lake looking to stars and falling meteors.

Teach, Learn, Share

I would love to take a part of a multinational geologic field excursion and meet colleagues. Additionally I'm available to whom interest to organize a mountaineering or trekking activity, I could share my knowledge on Turkish mountains.
And I want to get better on French, so I'm open to suggestions.
