I am Berkay. I was born in Turkey, in a city named Tekirdağ which is very close to Istanbul. 👶🏻

Right now, I am studying English Language Teaching at Cyprus International University in North Cyprus. I am grade 3. I am a student assistant at my university. 🏫

I know very well Turkish 🇹🇷 and English 🇺🇸🇬🇧, and a little bit German 🇩🇪.

I like trying new things and I am open to everything. You can see the places I’ve visited on my photo album.

I want to travel the world, meet with new people and their culture. I want to share knowledge. I love making friends and talking a lot. 👬👫👯‍♂️💃🏽🕺🏻

Music, Movies, and Books

MUSIC
I like music a lot. I don’t have a specific genre that I like most, I listen any kind of music. I am a fan of Nicki Minaj and I idolize her a lot. I write rap but not professionally. I used to play flute and a few times piano. I like to dance as well. 🎤🎼🎧🎹

ART
I draw and paint but not professionally. I haven’t got any education of art. I choose different themes and mix them in a paper. 🎨🌄🖍

SPORT
For sports, I like playing badminton most and to swim. I’ve started ice skating, and I am in love with it. I like jogging. When I was younger I used to run, I was a good runner but now because of my liver problem I can’t run for a long time. I like playing basketball but I don’t like playing basketball match. I’ve started playing squash but I can’t play well because I don’t have any friend to play. I like playing chess and bowling as well. I like watching Olympics.🏸⛸🏊🏻‍♂️🏀🧘🏻‍♂️🚴🏻‍♂️♟🧩🎳🥏

BOOK
In my free time, I usually read. I like reading science books more than literary books. I read National Geographic and Popular Science magazines monthly. 📓📘📗📒📙📕(Recently I am reading “Brave New Brain”.)

MOVIES & SERIES
I also like seeing movies and series but usually I don’t have much time to watch. My favorite genres are animation and drama, but I like to see other genres too. 🎬 (Recently I am seeing “Orange is the new black” and the last movie I’ve seen is “Joker”.)
