🧾 About Me

I’m a Turkish citizen based in Ankara, with a Master’s degree from the United Kingdom and a long-standing habit of reading far too many newspapers before breakfast.

The idea behind this blog is straightforward: to make Türkiye a little more intelligible to foreign audiences, without requiring a PhD or an unreasonable amount of patience. Each day, I work through Turkish digital media and the national press and distil what’s actually going on into something readable and, I hope, useful.

If anything here sparks an idea or mild curiosity, you can reach me through the chat on Substack.


Just a small note:
If my daily work runs long and things stretch late into the night, the following day will most likely be a quiet one with no news bulletin, though I will try to let you know either way.
