Ever since I was a kid --- that will be too cliche. SO instead I will start by saying that : I like to LIVE my life. Not be idle and wait for my life to happen. I want to DO things! I like being in different places and doing different things. I like to discover.

My life until now has been woven of new and different experiences with each new path. First I was born in Turkey and got moved to New York when I was only 3 years old. I grew up in New York/USA which was amazing! Then I had to move back to Turkey. I've been living here in Istanbul for 7 years now. Talk about adjustment!
I am starting this blog in order to keep track of my thoughts and spread them around. I tend to run wildly with my thoughts so it may be difficult to keep up at times.

Generally the issues I really care about are: freedom of speech, freedom of justice, and freedom of individuality; the protection of the environment; and women's rights around the world. I try to help out in these areas via organizations such as Amnesty International and Greenpeace.

Ultimately my goal is to become more physically active in fighting for these issues by attending protests and rallies.
