What's with the surnames?
I have 3 nationalities, Bulgarian, Turkish and British, I was born in Bulgaria moved to Turkey at 11, moved to UK at 24.
Dora is my Turkish surname, due to some political structures in Turkey i had to chose a Turkish surname. I was born in Bulgaria as Semra Refkaeva Shukrieva, but semrashukrieva.com was taken so I took semradora.com

Currently based in Barcelona, I live in a beautiful apartment filled with books, paintings, plants and hand made utilities. My journey began in 2014 when I moved from Turkey to London, where I pursued a master's degree. In London's vibrant atmosphere, I founded a 3D printing and product design company, connecting artists with skilled craftsmen, guided by my philosophy: Celebrate innovation and timeless design. In 2017, I transitioned into software development. Now a skilled JavaScript engineer, I've worked with various companies, bringing a collaborative spirit and a drive to improve team dynamics.
