"Were this world an endless plain, and by sailing eastward we could for ever reach new distances? Such a great combination of words deserve much to be known."
Quote from French writer Marcel Proust - « In Search of Lost Time » novel:
"The only true voyage of discovery would be not to visit strange lands but to possess other eyes, to behold the universe through the eyes of another, of a hundred others, to behold the hundred universes that each of them beholds, that each of them is."

Now, about me, I'm Ali, yup nice to meet you, born in August 1994. Yet I had a short life so far, I've experienced many things. Been in 10+ (listed below*) countries, read 1000+ books etc. (For the book list please contact me) I love music, dancing, smiling, wondering, discovering new places, going on trips, watching movies with the person I care about, sightseeing, star watching (or watching the stars — it just feels that I’m leaning on the earth’s surface, leaning my back to soil, watch the stars looking upon them), spaces etc. The list of my favorite things is really long, maybe that is why I enjoy much life. Currently, I study Astronautical Engineering (Rocket Science!) in Ankara. Still there are places I've never been before and I want to learn about, like I never been in Japan. I'd love to stay a while in London once again, visit England and the other countries of UK.
Huge love to Finland!

I'm quite a funny person. I find life interesting and enjoyable. I love romanticism. I am patient. I work much, but also I make sure I spent time with my loved ones and for myself. I take care of myself, but I am not selfish. My blood type is A and if this would give a clue about me my perfume is Calvin Klein Euphoria.

I am looking for anybody, culture exchange, chit-chat, meeting and knowing about new peoples. Keep looking! Maybe you are the right person for me and maybe I am the right person for you. Also, if it happens that you visit Ankara let me know it, I might be helpful. Lastly, I love sending and receiving letters!

As a person living on this Planet, I also try to explore it and I easily jump on any opportunity to find myself away and closer to unexpected places and situations and most important of all, closer to extraordinary persons, a thing which I enjoy much.

Why am I on Tourbar?

Traveling, changing places, meeting people, offers opportunities of exchanging ideas, feelings, stories, meditate about how infinite the perspectives of things is. Receiving guests is a sort of inverted travel - the world at your door, on your fingerprints, all waiting to become reality themselves!
I love to mix persons’ discoveries with the learning of every culture's "greatest hits", I love combining places and myths exploration. Let’s trade legends of this world!

People seem to have forgot that every moment can be lived like a travel, and if we want, an interesting one. Forgot that we can consider ourselves tourists anytime and everywhere, even in our town. See the happy tourist face passing through in your street? You can be like him for free! Just be happy to be in every place, to can observe it, analyze it, see its inhabitants, meet them. Why searching different cultures only far away? Each individual is a different culture. Why trying to reach new places by starting on another continent? I bet we don't know our surroundings in detail, in a 1000 meters radius. Museums are somewhat a high concentration of collections. However, all around us is a museum, just look.

Beginning from what level of experience and understanding can we say "I know that country" or "I know that city" or "I know that person"?
I consider myself immensely rich for just having an internet access. I feel horrendously rich to benefit since the birth of all heritage and knowledge of preceding generations.
Artificial is natural.
The word 'but' (yet, however, although) is special. It is part of our mind despite lacking logic - no law of the Universe contain it.
I consider that every second lived and every meter traveled represents a journey, the journey of life. There is also the mind travel, the imaginary travel, and the inside travel.

*Countries I've been in so far: Austria(25 days), Belgium(5 years), Bulgaria(16 days), Egypt(1 month), France(1 month), Germany(19 days), Greece(1 week), Hungary(2 weeks), Iraq(4 days), Italy(8 days), Luxembourg(5 days), Netherlands(5 weeks), Romania(2 days), Saudi Arabia(3 months), Serbia(11 days) , Switzerland (23 days), Syrian Arab Republic(One and a half week), Turkey(15 years), United Kingdom(2 weeks), United States(3 weeks)

City that I adored: Göreme, Nevşehir, Turkey
City that I didn't like at all: Dallas, Texas, USA
-------------------------
In this world of variety, I try to not discriminate ages, places, ideas. The universe didn’t wait and don’t care about my verdict of greatness or banality, beautiful or ugly, good or bad. For me, all things are melting into each other and are interesting: to know, to understand, to assimilate into the noble story of mankind.
If it happens you can tell me history or myths of the world, you’ll get plenty of attention from me!
Just do not and do never hesitate. It could be a chance a life chance that you'll miss or a life-chance you'll find. About "About me" section, if you're speaking French or Turkish I could translate it for you.
