Ridvan Akbay

My name is Ridvan Akbay, I lived the majority of my life in Canada, outside of my birthplace of Istanbul, Turkey.

My first three grades at elementary school were completed in Turkey, but since we immigrated to Canada, I finished elementary school in our new country. Then, we moved back to Turkey temporarily, and I finished junior high school there. Again we moved, and I started grade 10 in Canada and finished high school.

My college diploma and university degree were completed in Canada.

I’m an avid reader of both fiction and non-fiction books, however the stories that intrigue me the most are World and European histories.

Thank you for giving me the opportunity to tell my brief story.

Take good care.
