I was born in Antalya.I studied to be a teacher of the English language.I taught English for some time, but eventually went into tourism.I moved to Izmir and got my guiding license from the Tourism Ministry in 1997 after successfully completing the professional tourist guide course there.My first job as a guide was in Cappadocia, an interesting region of central Anatolia.Later I formed a partnership with American and Turkish partners and opened a travel agency there after exploring and walking through nearly every valley, cave, church and underground city.I also began to guide in other regions of Turkey.We moved the agency to Istanbul in the year 2000.I strolled through Istanbul street by street and also completed my knowledge by traveling extensively all over Turkey on research.I have enjoyed touring many people during my time as a professional guide and I see each person as an individual.I continue to look forward to meeting those who want to learn about our wonderful country and I hope to get the chance to share it with you.
