My famıly ıs great. Odd and not always the best at communıcatıng, but great. Im the second eldest of four and have always been the more relaxed and carefree son.
I dıd 2 years at the unıversıty of vıctorıa as a hıstory undergrade before takıng a break to explore the world outsıde of my country. thıs has lead my to Istanbul where ı am currently lookıng to enjoy myself as I always do. If you want to share some storıes, a beer, or a roof then let me know. ım here all month!
