Hello. My name is Luccent. I am 23 years old and I was a student at Durham University. I read geography. I was born in BMH Rinteln, in the German state of Niedersachsen and lived the first five years of my life in Gütersloh, North Rhine Westphalia, Germany. Our family then moved closer to relatives in Bridgend,Wales. I moved to Istanbul when I was 21, and have lived there for 2 years. I worked as a copy-editor in a newspaper and taught English. I taught myself Turkish.
I don't know. But thanks to inflation it will be more expensive when you come back for another look. Unless you live in Japan because there has been deflation there. Which is bad for a market economy. I don't like annimals much anyway. Nor do I like taxidermy. I saw a documentary on BBC2 about taxidermists so I think they are special people.
I read Geography and I am particularly interested in transportation management. I hope in the future to complete a MPlan / MA / MSc in something to do with Transportation management or Town Planning, and possibly onwards to a DPhil or a Ph.D. I did my dissertation on
"A post-structuralist philosophical re-evaluation of literature produced on the South Wales Disturbances during the 1910s and 1920s, especially in reference to Irish immigration."
I am well-versed in the local geography of south Wales.
I am also pretty knowledgable about Turkey and Turkish affairs, and I will contribute and edit articles related to Istanbul and Turkey.
I speak French and Welsh more or less fluently. After living in Turkey for a few years, I can speak Turkish quite well. I speak Italian to a lesser degree and Spanish is very easy to read. I am attempting to learn German, with some success. I also speak a tinsy bit of Russian, although it is a lot harder to stick at than the others were.
I am trained in Associated Press style for writing and editing copy, a lot of my edits on Wikipedia will be to fix wayward commas, greengrocer's apostrophes, needless capitalisations, mixed British/American spellings, and also making things which are not necessarily incorrect sound more succinct in English.
