;But who am I? If you care to know;
I am of mixed [https://ethnicity.fandom.com/wiki/Laz Lazi] and [[Wikipedia:Georgians_in_Turkey#Chveneburi|Chveneburi]] heritage. On my Chveneburi side, I descend from the Çürüksulu Curuksuli and Gagaloglu families. According to family history, our ancestors lived in Batumi since the early 19th century. However, our family name originates from Kobuleti, a place known as a center for the Ottoman slave trade in the Caucasus during the 17th century, according to Don Cristoforo De Castelli[https://web.archive.org/web/20210412033654/http://dspace.nplg.gov.ge/handle/1234/3779]. However, during the 1877-78 Russo-Turkish War and subsequent migrations[https://www.tc-america.org/images/big/displacement-map.jpg], including the Ottoman forced migration policies of 1878[https://web.archive.org/web/20240308150223/https://dspace.nplg.gov.ge/handle/1234/163562][https://web.archive.org/web/20240206150607/http://openlibrary.ge/bitstream/123456789/6424/3/%D0%9E%D0%A7%D0%95%D0%A0%D0%9A%D0%98%20_1_.pdf], they moved from Batumi to Fatsa and helped build the village of Duayeri.
As an ex-Muslim, I've been agnostic for about 10 years now. I like Christianity in general and I appreciate some of the Hinduism, Buddhism and Sufism values. I've also been a vegetarian for the past 4 years. In my early teens, I faced the challenge of weight gain due to side effects from OCD medication and unhealthy eating habits. Thankfully, at 17, I committed to a healthy diet and exercise routine, leading to a significant weight loss of around 50kg. Unfortunately, in my early 20s, stress from university and the challenges of young adulthood caused my weight to fluctuate again. However, drawing on past experiences, I recommitted to healthy habits – exercise and a balanced diet. This dedication led to a significant weight loss (again) of around 50kg, and I've maintained a healthy lifestyle ever since. I am in my late 20s now...
A computer enthusiast since childhood, I've dabbled in computer hardware, web design, 3d modeling, rendering and programming. While I have a fondness for '90s and '00s PC games, particularly simulation and strategy titles, I also enjoyed famiclones, fifth, sixth, and seventh generation home consoles in the '00s. My love for retro gaming extends to emulation and hypervisors for their convenience, but I also appreciate the experience of using classic hardware, I still enjoy using VGA CRT monitors and CRT TVs for nostalgic experience from time to time. That's why I'm here, but of course, I have a wide range of hobbies beyond that, many of them mentioned in "If possible, try these activities instead" section.
