Yes, that’s me !
I was born in Istanbul, the first-born child of a couple who really loved each other. Until 17, I grew up dreaming that I would be a professional basketball player, but eventually I faced up to reality and worked in the family business until 2009. I entered the food and beverage sector in 2010 as founding partner and manager of Lokanta Maya, one of the most pleasurable restaurants of Istanbul. After many hard working and but high enjoyable years at Lokanta Maya, we moved to Paris in 2017 following a job offer my wife received. I was instantly mesmerized by Paris and decided to walk all of the “arrondissement”s to be able to find out everything I could about this amazing city. That’s how I decided to start parisbywalking on Instagram.
