First of all, I just felt the need to add the note that “im not here for dating and/or flirting”. Please don’t send me messages within these and similar concepts.

About me: Im living with my dog in a coastal town between İstanbul and Ankara in Türkiye. I like trekking, swimming, learning new things about anything, traveling and having deep conversations with strangers. There were some times i could do all of them together at the same time, those times were among the most awesome parts of my life :)
I love meeting new people from different culture and lifestyles. Im solo female traveler and actually have traveled a lot but unfortunately i have had cs account soo late that i dont have many references. I hope i’ll enrich here very soon.
I am an academician. Thus, during semester I am generally busy with studying and working on sustainability, ecological ethics projects and/or giving lectures related to them. When i am not, i prefer to spending my time with my dog in nature. If you come within semester you are welcome to join us. But, if you prefer to coming in holidays i may show you around, even different cities and share my knowledge about Türkiye and Turks!

Türkiye’den sadece kadın misafir kabul ediyorum. Kusura bakmayınız arkadaşlar :)

Music, Movies, and Books

I like listening to rock, blues and jazz depends on my mood. And pop while running but it is a secret.
Benny and joon is my favorite movie, i always watch it whenever i feel blue and sometimes without waiting to feel blue. :) i think i watched it millions of times.
Tutunamayanlar (the disconnected) is my favorite book written by a Turkish writer Oğuz Atay, i read it several times even if it has 724 pages ✌🏻
