Lives in Istanbul

Registration: 23 October 2013

About

I grew up in the London. It was home and I loved it, but I was eager to move and finally left a few years ago when I finally resolved all of my commitments. I travelled for about two years going to as many of the places I always wished I could. An amazing time which I used as well as I could and relished every moment of it. The hard thing about travelling is that it's hard to stop. The urge just grows stronger, the more you see the more you want to see but I felt I had to stop whilst I still could, so I moved to Cairo for a year and a half to be closer to family and friends. A fantastic place to be but now I have settled and married in Istanbul. It's a beautiful city and I'm very happy here with my wife. Turkey has a lot to offer any traveller, holidaymaker or settler like me and it's a great hub for getting to just about anywhere! The urge to travel is still there... Professionally I've taken various opportunities and I still do but overall I've predominantly been involved with residential property development/management and have some apartments available in Beyoglu available for rent. I am also an avid photographer and have an extensive collection taken around the world.
Interests: property, Filmiming, History, diving, Cannyouning, Photpgraphy, trekking, Caving
