Zdravo! My name is Hakan, and I am a 20-year-old Istanbulite guy. I am a senior student studying Political Science and International Relations. As my graduation is just around the corner, I have realized that while focusing on my classes, I haven’t contributed enough to my community and was not an active member of society. Thus, I thought a journey like the one at VCS would be a remarkable experience.

I enjoy exploring new countries and languages. I try to learn as many new phrases as possible from various languages. I play college volleyball and I do cross-country running.

This will be my first time as a volunteer. Although I don’t know what to expect or what this month will bring, only I know that I will try to enjoy every second of it and collect memories.
