memorable ones. In this year, I saw heavenly beautiful views, decided to marry to my love of my life,
I made up my mind about my first magazine match-up, traveled to places I didn't see before and met
cute and creative people who are from Turkey and the other countries; such as Spain, Denmark,
United States, Balkans, Australia, Chile, and the United Kingdom. I want to meet more people in 2014!
Lets hope, 2014 will be more amazing, and full of joy & travels :)
