There are many things I enjoy doing in my free time. For example, traveling. When I was in university, I started traveling with a small group of friends. We began by hitchhiking around Turkey. After that, I continued to travel with my own caravan. I also enjoy sketching when I have free time. I usually sketch product designs when I feel overwhelmed or uncomfortable due to work, and it helps me relieve stress.
