PINAR

Born and raised in here; i am a true İstanbul lover! My passion for İstanbul, sports and running meets here in Go Running Tours İstanbul!

I am a 38 year old woman, a former basketball player  and an active member of Fenerbahçe, one of the major sports clubs in Türkiye. I'm an amateur runner for many years now and have been attending running (road & trail) races for 12 years. I'm also a multi-sport person, who loves to practice and try different kind of sports. Sports have always been a major part of my life and later on, also my career in different fields. I worked with the pioneer brands in sports industry in various positions. Nowadays I am working as a content creator, contributing writer, building my own clothing brand and City Leader of GRT Istanbul! I also have teaching certificates of hatha yoga and hammock yoga.

Since I had my high school degree in Sankt Georg Austrian High School after having a 8-year education there and my college degree in Sabanci University after 4 years of college education, which has an US college system; I have been in multinational environments since my childhood and was lucky enough to grow up in multicultural disciplines. I find it very joyful and nurturing to meet new people from different cultures.

I am a lover of sports, sea, nature, animals -i am a cat mom of 5 myself-, travel, exploring new places and cultures, food and wine, socializing, reading, writing, and many more thing that help me lead a joyful life.

I can’t wait to meet you and show you my mesmerizing hometown of İstanbul!
