My life is deeply connected to art and sports, and I strive to live every moment to the fullest. Music is my passion, especially playing the kanun, which is one of my greatest joys and a way to express myself. At the same time, I make sure to stay active by engaging in sports, as leading an active life is important to me. I often spend time with my friends, sharing meaningful moments and having fun together. Whether it’s our conversations, joyful times, or evenings filled with music, these experiences truly make my life richer and more beautiful. I’m living a happy, peaceful, and fulfilling life, focusing on what I love and taking steady steps toward my goals.

Welcome to this joyful and beautiful life of mine.
