About me

About me
Born in İzmir, studied computer science in Ankara. Now occupied with pharmaceuticals, corporate strategy & sales force management. Of course work is the means to create the opportunity to travel, see different cities & cultures, taste different cuisines.

Other than traveling, I love traveling Istanbul by motorbike, performing drums on the stage and discovering new restaurants in Istanbul.

And above all
I love ARSENAL

Why Istanbul?
After living in 3 cities and traveling through more than 20 countries some of which I love, Istanbul is still my favorite city. The history, stories behind every street and finding a new attraction behind every corner makes this city amazing.

In a stone's throw away, you can find high end fancy gastronomical wonders and great street food together. There are always surprises so it is never enough to explore!

Real kebab experience

"Harbi Ocakbaşı" Istanbul is a restaurant obsessed with making the real Adana kebab the way the locals like it. I do think it's the best kebab in the city.
