41 Years of Unending Love: ASSOS

Master actor Ali Sürmeli, who was a guest on Deniz Sarı's YouTube channel, shared his life story spent in all four corners of Turkey, his experiences on the silver screen, and his love for Assos.

The son of a postman father who, in his own words, turned into a dove when he loved and a wolf when he was angry, Sürmeli migrated to the west following his father's advice: "Civilization was born in the west, it went west to develop, son; you go too."

Expressing his admiration by saying, "Assos is the westernmost part of the country. After my father's advice to 'go west, son,' I saw that this is the westernmost point of the country," Sürmeli is an actor passionate about Assos.

"I Came to Assos for the First Time 41 Years Ago."

"My first visit was with brother Avni. When I came to Kadırga 41 years ago, I thought what a beautiful place it was."

Assos Aristotle Art Academy

Inspired by Assos, which has the history of an ancient city, the master actor is preparing to realize his dream of establishing the Aristotle Art Academy. He stated that he will build the academy on 12 decares.

"I live in luxury here in a caravan."

"Even if a person is the richest in the world, they breathe every minute or hour, something that cannot be bought with money. There is precious oxygen in Assos."
