ABOUT ME

Name's Atilgan, 32 year-old HR professional. Was born and have been living in Istanbul since then. Currently working in an international project at Muscat/Oman.

I really enjoy going out in both at day and night, scuba diving, photography, old structures and history, exploring as well as meeting locals and fellow travelers, chatting, laughing and enjoying a few beers.

PHILOSOPHY

Only those who risk going too far can possibly find out how far they can go.
