About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I just finished my studies and at the moment I am trying to figure out what I want to do with my life. Next step: 3 Months in Diyarbakir, Turkey.

ABOUT ME

I love to get in touch with all kinds of people. Try to understand their culture and why they act a certain way. I have spend one year as an Erasmus-Student in Istanbul and fell in love with the turkish culture. Everybody was so open and supported my intend to learn the language :)
I discovered wide parts of Turkey hitchhiking and experienced the turkish misafir pervert (hospitality). I ate homemade cig köfte in Adilcevaz, learned how to make kuymak in Uzungöl and joined the Çocuk Bairam (Childrens Holyday) in Anavarza (Adana).
Sadly all this happened not on CS, so I have a pretty empty profile ...

PHILOSOPHY

I think everybody is doing whatever he/she does because to them it seems like the most right thing to do.
I want to get in touch with people to understand their reasons.

Interests

Since about 15 years I am a member of the scouts and since 5 years I am leading a group of teenagers there.
Therefore I like being with people and I like being in the nature.
If you enjoy being in the nature, you also have preserve it. Or someday there wont be anything left to enjoy.
