Dogacan and Boran

Boran Biriz

Born in Izmir and raised in Istanbul. Graduated architecture at Vienna University of Technology. His wish to live for a little while in overseas has been changed and he didn’t turn back to Turkey. After getting his degree he moved to Munich. He likes travelling, watching birds, taking photos, painting, collecting stamps and cooking. His last aim is to learn Greek and get to know the Greek culture. Shortly after he met Dogacan, they’ve founded Kalamata Magazine and keep on working together. His next wish is to laze away all summers long on the sunny and turquoise beaches of Crete. – www.boranbiriz.com
