Description
I am Ergin, from Turkey. I am kind of dreamer, who is enthusiastic for travelling and meeting with new people and new cultures. I believe there are a lot of things we can learn from each other.
My intent to travel started at the university years. At every possible time which was left from studying, I was travelling. Since I studied Industrial Engineering for bachelor degree, I didn’t like this subject and at university years I improved myself about video making. And video making is still one of my main passions. Now, I travel with my own equipments (a professional drone, gopro and a stabilizer for phones) to find some chance to make some videos on the journey also.
My other passion is nature. I love to travel in natural places, hiking and camping kind of activities and besides I made my master’s degree in agriculture. During I was living in Ankara, I built a terrace garden and I cultivated different vegetables and flowers in that garden for three years and I wrote my thesis about terrace gardening. After getting graduated from the master’s degree, I made a 6 months internship in an association in a mountain village in Italy about the agriculture and I get more experience.
Since I am willing to know about different cultures, I am eager to learn different languages. While I was living in Italy, I learned Italian and I was able to communicate in Italian with the local people and work with them in gardening activities.
I am in Latin America for the last 8 months, I can say I speak Spanish not fluent but enough to communicate with people. I still need some time and afford to be fluent but I am on it.Interests
