  • Description

    Hey there, I'm a photographer from Istanbul! I've been solo traveling since 2023 and love connecting with people along the way. It’s often seen as odd, but I’m genuinely interested in everything. I love living and believe every experience is worth trying—even the ones that seem boring! I’m particularly drawn to documentary photography and archiving, and my goal on this journey is to understand every aspect of human life. I have a small pop-up art gallery in İstanbul, so I would also love to meet the artists and art communities along the way!

    I believe everything we do matters, and what makes something more or less significant is the way we choose to perceive it. I try to embrace everything as if I were a camera, recording the moments of life.

    Please accept my support in your cause, lets build whatever you are building/doing together!

    More details about my language interests
    I studied linguistics, so I’ve always been interested in languages. My main focus has been on understanding how we, as humans, possess language abilities and how these abilities differ across cultures, cognitive variations, and individual experiences. I'm particularly interested in Japanese and German, and I’m open to teaching Turkish in exchange. I can also teach English to someone who doesn’t know the language, using linguistic techniques—even though I don’t consider myself master in English.

  • More details about your skills

    I was into caving for four years, which helped me develop a wide range of nature-related skills. I also have years of experience in event management, so I can contribute to coordination efforts. I spent two weeks working on a fishing boat in the Black Sea, which gave me hands-on experience in challenging environments. I've worked on farms multiple times, so I’m comfortable working with soil.

    While I wouldn’t call myself a gourmet cook, I can prepare meals for 30-40 people in a camping setting. The food may not be the most delicious, but I make sure everyone is well-fed! I can paint walls, dye people’s hair, and capture great photos and videos of events, performances, and people. I used to dog-sit when I was in high school, and I had a dog with a flatmate, so I’m quite good with dogs. Plus, I've always had a cat throughout my life—I love animals.

  • What else ...

    I enjoy swimming—even in winter! I love climbing, diving, and riding my bicycle. Dancing is a big passion of mine, especially to experimental music, punk and EDM. I’m also drawn to capturing underground scenes in different cultures, and I love documenting every moment, whether through video or photography.
