ABOUT ME

My name is Yiğitalp Avus. I am 23 years old and I was born on 31 August 1991 in Istanbul, Turkey. I had studied in Pertevniyal Anatolian High School for 4 years and graduated from there in 2009. Then i started to study at Department of Economics in French in Galatasaray University, finished this year on june. I used to live in Istanbul with my family, now in Italy/padova doing evs volunteering. In my free times, I like reading book, listening to music and watching movie. I like dancing. I’m also interested in Cinema for years . Especially I always try to follow the film festivals in Turkey. People describe me as a sensetive and careful person. I am concerned about environmental issues ,politics, human rights (especially oppressed groups in Turkey for example women, LGBT’s, Non-Muslims, Kurds and immigrants). I am a friendly, funny and easy-going person.
