mystery: story, legend, tale contradiction: poetry, poesy, tire, tired epic: nomads, horsemen, caravan inspiration: moonlight, sunset, rainbow culinary: crisp, light, appetizing I like words. I like words of mystery like story, legend, and tale. I like words of contradiction like poetry and poesy. I like epic words like nomad, horseman, and caravan, words of inspiration like September, sunset, and rainbow, and culinary words like crisp, rare and appetizing. If I was given the talent I could use them as a poet does. But I am a tour guide of Istanbul and in Istanbul, poetry is no art. There is a price I have to pay to use each of these words. They cost a lot of study and shoe soles. I can use them only when I find a match. So I don't write the story, I read it and in Istanbul, the true story is written between the lines. Well, I like words and like to have a few with you. . . Professional Tourist Guide License from the Ministry of Culture And Tourism Graduation from AEGEAN UNİVERSİTY, Tour Guiding department.
