Bio
I was born in the old city of Istanbul, and I still live in my family house. I pass by the oldest church in Istanbul when I walk to the shore; I gaze at the Yedikule Fortress when I wait for my bus. I grew up in a cosmopolitan neighborhood that thought me not to classify people niether for religion nor for ethnics. This mentality, instilled at an early age, now inspires me to be a citizen of the world, not just the country.
I am a great fan of spiritualism, supernatural things, mythology, folklore and history of religions. Studying them led me to the world of art, first ancient temples to sculpture, and then finally to paintings. After graduating from Marmara University’s Tourism Guide Department, I became one of the rare fortunate people who can combine their passions and interests with their jobs. This has a benefit very precious to me: the ability to meet people, introduce them to Turkey, exchange knowledge and ideas, and share time together.
After working as both a free-lance professional tour guide for 4 years and a travel agency representative for 10 years, I decided it was time for me to create my own travel business, Blue Phoenix. My name, Ufuk, means horizon. As the phoenix rises and flies toward new horizons, so do I. I invite you to join me on my journey...
