About Ilkay
Hi, I'm Ilkay Tuna — a QA Engineer with a passion for both breaking things and exploring the world. I believe that the same curiosity that makes a great tester also makes a great traveler.
Every city I visit becomes a case study. Every culture is a new user experience. I pay attention to the details — whether it's a subtle bug in an app or a hidden cafe in a back alley of Istanbul.
This blog is where my two worlds collide: travel stories that read like adventure diaries, and QA notes that make testing feel human and relatable.
Often joined by Umut, a backend engineer who keeps the code (and the itineraries) running smoothly.
