CURRENT MISSION Basing near Byron Bay for now - learning a lot about life by being more still. Usually... intuitively traveling while working with a few key beloved humans to make manifest good outcomes across digital currency, cannabis medicine, finance and so on. Often up for adventure, mystery, beauty and candour when not in a reflective-creative space. ABOUT ME I flow freely most of the time, try to hold multifaceted perspectives, and commit strongly to learning (around) and contributing energy to whatever is beneficial, vital-alive and otherwise fascinating to me. Every day I'm remembering more about why my stardust meat skeleton cluster came here, and what wants to live through it. It's been a colourful ride thus far... PHILOSOPHY Communicate with honesty and compassion. Challenge and evolve mental models that don't serve. Live in alignment with truth, teasing one's edges. Heal oneself and support the growth of others. Be adventurous and foolish. Have fun and indulge consciously. Balance surrender and action. Share adventure, energy and wisdom with all people. Crack and sometimes break what appears possible in this reality.
I am a artist recently living in the great city of Lisbon. I was living in the U.K. before moving here. In the U.K. I started a few art projects in leicester called art for change. I live creativity and sharing, deep conversations and getting to know you. We have so much to offer through sharing and breaking down the walls we have been conditioned to live in. Let’s make this world more creative and fill it with colours and love.
My instagram 👇🏼 https://www.instagram.com/alihankusakli I’ve been living in Lisbon for the last 2.5 years, but I spent around 4 years backpacking through Asia and Latin America before that. Travel has shaped most of my life. I’ve stayed with locals, volunteered, worked in kitchens, spent time in hostels, got stranded in unexpected places and collected more stories than I can remember. I also worked at Turkey’s only Michelin-starred Japanese restaurant and once won €25,000 on a quiz show, which mostly turned into more travel. I enjoy long conversations, local food, history, photography, walking around without a plan and learning how people actually live in a place rather than just seeing the highlights. I’m here for genuine cultural exchange, interesting people and good stories. If you’re curious, open-minded and respectful, we’ll probably get along.
