I have worked as an employee in medium sized companies in the first ten years of my business life.. Then, after ten years, my next step was having a dominant partner and make our own business. You can imagine, a dominant partner is just like a boss, so 'new way' did not make much difference but was a good step :)

Couple of years ago I felt that I was ready to go on my own, even to move to another town in south of Turkey.. I have started rent-a-boat business there.

By that time I also started a shop in Etsy with my hand painted t-shirts but could not focus in it enough. I stopped it after sometime.

In 2011, december 28th, I had a traffic accident and got seriously injured, my neck was broken.. After the immediate operation I was not able to work for about 4 months and till now I was resting most of the time. I was so lucky that my nerves were ok and only my neck and back was injured. While resting and healing at home I decided to work on my Etsy shop again ! I am running it for the last 15 days, I sold an item up to now and hoping to tell you more stories about my Etsy business in near future..

Peace..
