Originally I am from Turkey, I’ve been living in the U.S. for a long time. I like to read a lot and keep up with many things–politics, social issues, culture, travels, people because I love the surprise of the unknown. I love to learn about new places, people and cultures.I’m very down to earth. I especially value humor, being able to laugh at yourself, being able to communicate, culture in general, social issues, staying healthy, and the freedom to think out of the box. I have old fashioned values and I am a loyal and trustworthy guy as i have been taught and showed by my mother. I grew up in a big family with strong family values. therefore, family comes first in my book. Family and friends are most important to me in life. I've learned that money and opportunities come and go, but your friends and family are always there to help you when you need it. I hope one day I can pass down those qualities to a family of my own, and it's why I work so hard today. overall, i am a good guy who has finished last and got hurt all the time
