I was born in 1986 in a mountainous village located on the north of Diyarbakir. This region, Upper Mesopotamia, is surrounded by the high mountains between Anatolia and Iran—a Kurdish geography that lies at the crossroads of these lands. As a result, the cultural basin formed by these three regions—Kurdish, Armenian, Arab, Turkish, Semitic, and Iranian cultures—played a significant role in shaping the first layers of my identity. Later, starting at the age of 20, I began living in the Mediterranean and Istanbul, where Roman, Greek, and Balkan cultures intertwine.
I graduated from the Tourism Management department of Ege University and later from the Tourist Guiding program at Marmara University. I have conducted extensive tours as a specialist and guide across all regions, historical sites, and museums of Turkey. In 2017, I traveled to Iran for a five-month Persian language course and explored the country. Since 2021, I have been living in France, where I have immersed myself in the French language, culture, and history. Additionally, I have frequently visited the French-speaking regions of Switzerland and traveled through the Flemish countries (Belgium, the Netherlands, and Luxembourg), studying their culture and history.
Throughout my life, I have always approached social sciences, literature, and art with great enthusiasm, continuously reading and exploring these fields. My journeys, readings, and research have ultimately led me to create a platform to offer guiding services in these regions.
I grew up in a neolithic way of life, away from the modern world of television and radio, listening to the legends and tales our elders shared with us at night. Now, I wish to carry forward this oral tradition, passed down from generation to generation, into a different era and geography with my own voice.
I look forward to traveling together on a journey in a story one day.
