(First I should say that I am no longer living in Istanbul. I moved to Gaziantep and living there. But there is no option to change the address in CS. If i have signed up as a new user in a new address my all references would be gone. )

I am a product designer. I worked as a designer for 13 years. I got some internation awards like ifdesign, reddot and g-mark.

I had to leave my design business. For ten years i have been managing our family farm in Gaziantep. I am trying to organise the accounting and all other organisational issues.

I am staying in the city center Gaziantep. But when there is things to do i go to farm and stay there.
