Meet Özden GÜNGÖR | Tattoo Artist, Jeolog, public administrator, Veterinary technician
We had the good fortune of connecting with Özden GÜNGÖR and we’ve shared our conversation below.
Hi Özden, how has your perspective on work-life balance evolved over time?
İ think life begins at the point where minuses and pluses are neutralized. Stress occurs when we work under routine and intense work conditions in our daily lives . Stress is a negative thing and it distracts people from living life.
When we do work with pleasure, we get away from the stress accumulation in our body. We can work hard enough and discover new happiness and peace in our remaining time.
Can you open up a bit about your work and career? We’re big fans and we’d love for our community to learn more about your work.
My drawing adventure started when i first picked up a pen as a child and transferred ink to the wallpapers in my house. Drawing has been with me throughout my life, and i have been interested in tattoo art for the last five years. Even if our memory leaves us one day, i love that our happy memories come with us and carry the details that make us who we are. İt was not easy to perform my Tattoo work right away. During this process, i made an effort to find people whose stories i would portray. İ focused on expanding my business network to overcome challenges.
We are made of our memories. Let’s not forget the most beautiful details that make us who we are.
Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
I live in Izmir. Life is beautiful in this city. History in the fabric of the city is blended with the present. You can pass from the Ancient Agora to Kemeraltı. You can compare the meeting areas from past to present. The first health center in the world, Asklephion, was established in this city. You can listen to an orchestra at the Ephesus ancient theater or take a peaceful walk in the Homer Valley. Coastal are full of activities. There is a bicycle path covering the beach. In this way, you can explore the city step by step. Bird Paradise, the home ground of birds, is in this city. You can witness the birth of baby flamingos. You can eat delicious food at Gibi Vegan in Bostanlı and find delicious historical desserts in many places. Food to suit everyone’s taste can be found at any location.
The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?
When life brings us negative situations, the love within us sweeps us off our feet. That’s when we can find all the energy in our little bodies to overcome obstacles. Everyone and every living thing that sprouted the love within me has a trace on the path İ walk.
