Hello everyone, I’m Özcån but people also call me dread because of my hairstyle and my real name is hard to pronounce. I’ve been travelling around the world since 2012. So far, I have been to North, South, Central America, all over Europe, North Africa, Middle East and Asia. I had so many chances to work and live in different countries and I realized that’s what I actually love to do. I feel like I truly exist when I go for a long walk in the woods, camp, swim, explore and so on. I was born and raised in Austria and then my family moved to Turkey. My journey in Turkey was only 10 years. Then, I hit the road for Germany and stayed there for 2 years and my last destination is Canada and I’m living here since 2018. I just wanna take all the opportunities that life brings to me to isolate myself from this industrial society.

I love history, geography, science, astronomy, cultures, traditions, art, tattoos, eSports, soccer, volleyball, music and travelling :)
