Born in Cambridge to Turkish and Sri Lankan parents, and raised in Paris, I grew up surrounded by the elegance of a city where art, literature and beauty converge. The city’s intellectual spirit nurtured my earliest curiosities, guiding me to explore life’s hidden depths—from the psychology of Jung’s shadow self and the sociology of dystopian beauty standards to the spiritual resonance of the places we choose to call home.

Later, I lived between Florence and Valencia as part of my literature degree, cities that deepened my love for poetry, philosophy and rich culinary traditions. The tranquillity of the Tuscan landscape and Valencia’s artistic spirit were reminiscent of my past. From the rose-covered slopes of Giardino delle Rose to the palm-lined banks of the Jardín del Turia, I began to understand travel not as an escape, but as a mirror—revealing who we are through where we’ve been. It is in the textures of language, tradition and local rituals that I began to map a deeper, more conscious sense of belonging.

Now settled in London, I have been writing on luxury travel, arts and culture for Meer Magazine since early 2023. My “Love Letters To” series explores both destinations and hotels through a layered personal lens—treating each location as a living archive of culture, emotion and memory. From the ancestral and ancient Egyptian magnetism of Cairo’s desert, to the mythic beauty of Kalamata in the Peloponnese. Each piece traces the spiritual, psychological and sensorial threads that make a place unforgettable. I seek to uncover not just where we go, but why we go—and what lingers within us long after we leave.

I currently serve as Chief Content Officer at Travel Radar, one of the world’s leading aviation and travel platforms. I lead the editorial vision across a global network of writers, editors, and creators—shaping the direction of contemporary travel journalism with a focus on depth, elegance and cultural relevance. I oversee the production of longform destination features, thought-provoking industry interviews, and the brand’s flagship podcast, ensuring that each story balances luxury with legacy, trends with timelessness, and wanderlust with wisdom.

As I continue to grow within the industry, I remain passionately driven to expand my work across leading titles in the luxury travel and lifestyle space—bringing my voice, vision, and reverence for culture to publications like Condé Nast Traveller, Vogue, Wanderlust, and many more.

With a particular affinity for luxury travel and experiential hospitality, my writing is grounded in the belief that luxury is not defined by excess, but by intimacy: with history, culture and soul. I write to document, to distill and ultimately to elevate the way we experience the world.

Alongside my work as a writer and editor in the luxury travel, arts, and culture space, I am also building a personal brand—The Luxury Nomad—dedicated to content in personal development, mindset and manifestation, spiritual healing, and astrology. My work is rooted in the belief that we are not bound by circumstance, conditioning, or even the past. Drawing on the teachings of quantum consciousness, subconscious reprogramming, and soul-level remembrance, I create content that invites people to step into the full creative authority of their lives. Influenced by the visionary insights of Dolores Cannon, the neurological rewiring of Dr. Joe Dispenza, the metaphysical principles of Neville Goddard, and the mind-power teachings of Dr. Joseph Murphy, I blend spiritual wisdom with psychological depth to help others reshape their inner world and rewrite their outer reality.

This isn’t just self-help—it’s self-activation. Through storytelling, astrology, and energetics, I aim to awaken something ancient and intuitive in people: the knowing that they are not here to survive, but to expand. This platform is more than content; it’s the early architecture of something far greater—a movement, a mirror, a legacy. One that lives at the intersection of luxury, consciousness, and becoming.
