Hi, guys!
I'm the flying architect!
I am making an internship in Kengo Kuma Assoc. in Tokyo. So I'm living in Tokyo at this time but I born and lived in Istanbul. I also lived in Prague for about a year and make Erasmus there. It was such a great experience that I had the chance to travel all around Europe by visiting so many cities and tasting lots of cultures!
This is my first time in Tokyo and I'm living here about 3 months. I'll be here more. I just fell in love with this country and city and people!!! ( but here, I am living in a share house. So that, I cannot accept guests at this moment unfortunately :( )

I'm an enthusiastic and curious person, I really love to live different cultures and really want to see different places with different people in my life.

I love travelling, reading, creating, designing, cooking :)

I'm an architect. So, I'm interested in every kind of design, philosophy, psychology and so on. Because of that I want to meet new people and share the thoughts thus, getting many experiences with them.

Beside, I really interested in Asian culture(their architecture and minimalistic philosophy also) and I'm studying Japanese.

Hope to meet you who have the same interest with me!

Music, Movies, and Books

About music I mostly prefer to listen jazz, indie, electronic, lofi hiphop, sometimes rock, sometimes rap but mostly the musics of some unpopular/ unfamiliar Asian groups musics like
Ohhyuk, Raw by Peppers, Casker, Cheeze, Epic High etc. from Korea;

South Penguin, Analogfish, Mitsume, Emerald, The Novembers, Long Tosite Sigure from Japan;
some groups from China also.

But I am an old fan of 70s 80s 90s American musics. I can say that my music range is so broad :D We can find a common taste I think ;)

In addition, I am really a real fan of those guys:

Ayn Rand-The fountainhead
Haruki Murakami's all novels
Yuval Noah Harari- Sapiens + Homo Deus
George Orwel- 1984
Dostoyevski
Jean Paul Sartre

The pianist
A beautiful mind
Blade Runner
Ghost In The Shell

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I came to Tokyo and planning to go Korea which are my dream cities!

I had so many stories from my travels also, we can talk on them when we meet ;)

Teach, Learn, Share

I can share my stories, knowledge about my profession architecture. I fondly prepare you Turkish foods and teach you how to prepare them. I can say that I am really good at cooking and so interested about other culture's cousins. So that, we can cook and eat together, it could be great and fun ;)

We can also talk about philoshopy and every thing which I really want to do! I am so enthusiastic about different thoughts also.
