Turkeye and Me

My first achievement in the financial industry

TURKEYE!

Our journey took us to this wonderful country, upon arrival we were greeted by the cool breeze of the country..it was the end of winter..yet it was still very cold for a Malaysian like me.

Enjoy the pictures!

With happy and exciting friends..hehe

Our arrival was greeted with this huge signage of my name on it!
