关于我

Communication among cultures is the bridge to the solution of peace.

ABOUT ME

Keen on the goodness of everybody.

I am a surfer and a host, actively since 1974:

Know Istanbul very well as a traveler and a photographer.

Night and day person. Enjoy talking and listening...

Don't shout, whisper; don't fight, touch!

Slow DOWN; pleasure UP!

Was a "boy of details", then am a "man of details" :)

I can't tolerate positional thinking. Prefer universal thinking! You ask me when you meet me!

Interested in knowing all the segments of the society, like men, women, children, mothers, patients, workers, teachers, doctors, bookkeepers (...) that leads me to empathy at a high level.

PHILOSOPHY

Be the change you wish to see in the world. (Mahatma Gandhi)

Cultural operator/photographer.
Enjoyed the company of many cultures, people.
Extensive traveler myself. Want to exhibit that people are similar in spirit whoever, wherever, whenever... Member of the Greek-Turkish Friendship Association

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Photography is my spirit. How it started and developed is amazing. It's my drive!
Opening exhibitions in Siberia has been the amazing thing. The audience is warm, interested and open. Looking forward to experiencing the next six of them.

教,学,和分享

I'm prepared to support anyone with the common problems of photography.

Can arrange a photo-safari and a photo workshop or master class in Turkey.

Can introduce the Turkish cousine and teach cooking.

Here are some ways to celebrate CouchSurfing Day by giving and sharing:
