Besides my academic research, I am also highly interested in literature. In addition to being an avid reader, I take a lot of notes while wandering through streets and write short stories usually based on fictional characters. I put some of these writings in my personal blog (in Turkish). Also, if you are interested in seeing the world through lenses of my own, I occasionally take some scenic photos and put up here. Other activities that I enjoy doing in my spare time include cycling, playing the piano, hiking and sailing.
