Personal Life

Disclaimer: Although I do like the idea of someone taking interest in my personal life, I am also cautious at the fact that there are some individuals who may misuse information on this page. Having said that I will try to share some of the more important aspects of my personal life.

Mustafa Yildiz, born in the year of the dragon 🐉 has always considered himself to be lucky. Having traveled back and forth between Australia and Turkey for most of his life, as an adult he is a confident globe trotter. Eventhough his first solo travel wasn’t till the age of 26, travelling seemed almost like second nature to him.

A few memorable moments.

If we rewind the clock a bit more, we can look at Mustafa’s early life. He was a young bright kid with a bit of a “chip on the shoulder” kind of attitude (and he probably still has). Having grown up as a spoilt kid, certainly there were perks like being able to get away with being naughty every now and then. Let’s not get stuck in his childhood.

Now as a matured adult fast approaching his midlife, things are slowly appearing more clearly to him. Ofcourse, that’s not to say he’s got everthing figured out, but it is his belief that mid-life is where one should have a good grasp of the direction a person should take for the second half. So in some ways he’s living the best life his budget can afford. Still there’s always room for improvement. Eventhough he’s had numerous life achievements both on personal and professional levels.

On the topic of achievements did i forget to mention? At the time of writing this article, he is fluent in both English and Turkish. He has a conversational level in Chinese (or atleast he thinks he does). Some phrases he can possibly blurt out in Espanol and Japanese. Finally some random words in Thai and Russian. Let’s not get into all the programming languages he knows, but if you’re keen then head on over to his Professional Career page.

I know this article may come across as plain / simple / boring or even one might call it bland. Unfortunately as stated in the disclaimer, this is done purposefully for Mustafa’s protection of his identity.
