Alo! What's up? Konusalim birazcik..

I am very adventurous, sometimes almost rash, but that's what is half the fun! I love to travel, learn new languages, and meet new people. I enjoy fine food, good movies, and human interaction at all levels and at all times. I am a graduate student working on a Ph.D. in Political Science. Very exciting, no? I teach Turkish as a TA and travel to Turkey at least once a year. I lived in Istanbul from 1998-2000 and taught at Marmara University. Looking forward to hearing from you

Insights
When raising a family, how important is it that your kids learn to speak Turkish?
Yes, but not necessary.
Describe the perfect evening.
Fantastic dinner of sushi, anything hot and spicy, Turkish, Persian, Indian - you name it, I like it. Afterwards as nice glass of wine and some interesting conversation until very late... Very easygoing and very, very intriguing.
Describe your perfect weekend.
To the mountains or, better yet, diving and deep sea fishing. Wineries are cool, too.
Do you believe in love at first sight?
Yes.
How many kids would you like to have?
I don't know, but probably no more than two.
If you could have one super power, what would it be and why?
I would take care of the preponderance of "soft men" aka fat that rule most countries and that are such egomaniacs and male chauvanists.
What is the most important lesson that you've learned?
All over the world - Turkey, Uzbekistan, Belize, Japan, all over Europe.
What do your friends like about you most?
Love of conversation, politics, and good epicureanism.
What do your friends tease you about the most?
Passion.
What gets on your nerves?
People who don't get out of their personal bubble. They don't understand that other people are around.
What is the most important thing in a relationship?
The importance of diverse interest and conversation, the love of food and pleasure.
What's the best age to get married?
I guess soon.
What turns you off?
Too much makeup and crappy lingerie.
What turns you on?
everything else.
What do you hope to be doing five years from now?
Somewhere with someone very nice. Not necessarily in the US, but oh well...
