About Me

CURRENT MISSION

reflecting my creativity on an art form -possibly a novel or a film

ABOUT ME

I am mid 30s male and in London for 2 years. Has been working as a automotive design engineer part time, so I can concentrate on my real interests, novel writing and films. I am not very social but love being with friends (sounds contradictory). Sometimes hate people if they allow injustice, cruelty, tyranny and shallow thinking. As I feel aging now more and more, I decided to be quick to see and to think more. To make what my soul asks me to do for.

PHILOSOPHY

Thinking about the world. Taking part on the subaltern for justice whereas not judging the people for their weaknesses. And actually still trying to understand. I think those should be enough for an absurd life with a death at the end.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Many of my friends and many friends of them have come to stay at my home in London. Even though this was not by CouchsSurfing connection, I guess I have a good experience now how to host, where to show, what to eat. We will decide then what to talk.

Writing, literature, films, filmmaking, football sometime, journalism sometimes, economy some other times.

Music, Movies, and Books

My favourite movies are three colours from Kieslowski and the Conversation from Thomas Vinderberg. I admire the thinking of Dostoyevski and like the style of Marcel Proust. And also enjoys Istanbul based self-reflective stories from Orhan Pamuk.

I have seen some amazing people.
