Temet nosce Know yourself
Cihan Hartamacı
Ordu shores, Istanbul nights, Beşiktaş match days, Sumela Monastery, friends who stay. Off the clock — and a little extra.

Film roll
Moments
Travel roads, friends who stay, quiet frames from Ordu to Istanbul.
Black & white
Beşiktaş
Beşiktaşlı — Vodafone Park nights, the roar, the walk home still humming.
Stadium stories live on Instagram for now — tap a moment to watch there. Local video files can be dropped in later.
Philosophy
Know thyself
Temet nosce is Latin for “know thyself” — ancient Delphic wisdom once carved at Apollo’s temple in Delphi.
It is a reminder to look inward before chasing the road ahead: stay honest about who you are, what you need, and what you leave behind.
For me it is less a slogan than a quiet compass — on Ordu shores, Istanbul nights, Sumela stone, and every stretch in between.
Captions
Short notes
The same energy as the stories — short, honest, a little playful.
I'll use this place as a notebook.
Not too much.
Everything is not okay, but I'm fine.
The road is long, but beautiful.
Temet nosce — know yourself on the way.
Ordu twilight resets the sprint clock.
Sümela stone remembers; I try to listen.
Workdays run on EDI maps — and a coding assistant in the loop.
Beşiktaşlı — black and white, always.
About
Notes from off the clock
A little about me, evenings, places, and the things that make ordinary days feel lighter.
A Little About Me
Curiosity, balance, and a small corner of the internet for places and moments worth keeping.
My Kind of Evening
Quieter hours, city lights, and evenings that don't need a plan.
Places I Want to See
Travel as atmosphere — coastlines, architecture, scenic roads, and everyday life from another angle.
Stay close

When a caption needs a little more room.
Things I Enjoy
Ordinary days made a little less ordinary — drives, design, curiosity, and joy without a productivity tax.
A Soft Spot for Cars
Design, dynamics, and the details that make an ordinary drive feel like a journey.
