One day, a little kitten ran out from under a car and came to me. Since that day, I have been living in the same house with that cat, and since that day
I love cats more than people.
(This is my best true story.)

I am a teacher living in Istanbul.

My philosophy is to live for goodness always and everywhere.

I advocate for human and animal rights. 🙋🏻‍♂️I know it's a challenging endeavor.😊

I am anti-capitalist and anti-fascist.
For me, all people are equal. There are only good and bad people, and this distinction is not based on nationality or religion. Please do not come to me with your religion or nationality; come to me with your humanity.

If you discriminate against others, please find another host. I don't want people who discriminate based on ethnicity, religion, gender, geography, etc., and homophobic.
There is no room in this home for people who discriminate.

I dislike selfish individuals. I appreciate generous and kind people. I love literature, enjoy reading, and I appreciate open-minded, socially aware individuals.

I like drinking alcohol and usually drink it at home. If you share this interest, we can drink together. 🍻
