I am Mert Ozkaya, 23 years of age, I was raised in Bursa, Turkey. Currently I’m living alone here in Buca Izmir for 5 years already since I entered College.
Most of my hobbies involve playing chess and basketball in my free time, Collecting, Shooting Short Films and my fascination in travel as it improves my sense of independence, self-esteem and I got to learn diverse culture. I’ve been in different countries in Europe so far only with my backpack (Italy, Serbia, France, Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Belgium, Bosnia etc.).
Currently I am in 4th year college taking up Mechanical Engineering Course at Dokuz Eylul University; in my first years in the University I had English Property class first before my formal education in Mechanical Engineering.
For 2 years I was part of a Drama club and it helps me improved my confidence.
During High School I am representing Bursa Anatolian Boys High School in chess competition as a professional chess player and I received different awards and recognition from this.
