About Me

I’ve been traveling for the past 4 years continuously, after starting my journey 9 years ago. I just spent 6 unforgettable months in Vietnam and recently arrived in Seoul on September 16th. At the end of October, I’ll be heading to Japan.

I play the handpan and often share music on the streets during my travels. I’m a calm person and also a very experienced hitchhiker, always open to meeting people and discovering new places along the way.

I’m a traveler with a deep love for poetry, music, and photography. I find inspiration in both bustling streets and quiet mountains. I enjoy reading Turkish and Persian poetry, and I’m learning Persian especially when I spend time in Iran. Music is a big part of my life; I play the handpan and djembe, always eager to learn more. Photography, whether capturing the raw energy of the streets or the serenity of nature, is another passion of mine. I’m open-hearted and curious, always seeking meaningful connections and new experiences. Let’s share stories, music, and moments!

I’m trying to live my life moment to moment because, in the end, that’s all we truly have just moments. Everything is changing with every breath we take, and we often forget how fleeting it all is. We need to slow down, embrace each second, and let go of the unkindness we sometimes carry. Let’s live for love raw, honest love and share all that we can. Let’s lift each other up, grow together as human beings, and replace judgment with understanding.

Every heartbeat is a gift, every sunrise a gentle reminder that nothing lasts forever. So why waste time on anger or regret? Let’s pour love into everything we do, speak with kindness, and move through life with open hearts. We never know when our story will end, but while we are here, let’s make every moment bloom with meaning. Let’s love like it’s the only thing that matters because it is.
