Hi! My name is Hannah and I'm sophomore at Oberlin College majoring in History with a minor in Middle East North Africa Studies. I'm interested in international relations, good books, food, photography, cats and traveling. I'm looking forward to spending a semester in Istanbul absorbing the culture and history of the city while improving upon my Turkish.
