About Me

-I'm an easygoing open-minded person.
-I have nearly NO stereotypes about anything.
-I'm eager to learn new things.
-I believe that you can not learn anything or gain experience unless you GET OUT OF YOUR COMFORT ZONE!
-I love helping, sharing and teaching. :)
-I love meeting with new people.
-Getting to know other cultures gives me satisfaction.
-I'm usually a talkative person but also a good listener.
-I will follow all house rules and wishing you to do the same! :)
-Travelling and volunteering is my lifestyle!
-My biggest dream is to DISCOVER all around the world. Not just travel but to know locals and cultures and so on.
-I'm not an eiffel or pisa tower picture traveller. Pictures are the salt and pepper but people, stories, cultures and experiences are the main ingredients. ! :)

(((!!! I will be HITCHIKING through EUROPE starting 15th of June 2017 :) from Barcelona. And i will turn back aaaall the way back from Spain to Turkey by hitchiking. And through the way i'm wishing to meet fellow couchsurfing members hoping that you can host me and help me throughout my biggest journey of my life. :)))) !!!))) DONE!

-Now after all i can call myself a hitchhiker, backpacker and a traveller. :)

You can follow my great journey and also learn more about me from my instagram account: https://www.instagram.com/travelleraid/

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To get to know more people and cultures. I think there won't be anyone harmful who is on the road and understands the couchsurfing idea. I'd like to make my journeys great and unforgettable by touching more people and having more stories. The more you know, see, touch, the better it gets.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music:I'm a big fan of Red Hot Chili Peppers. So i can say i like listening to alternative rock but im okey to discover new songs and styles.

Movies:I'm a huuuuuuuuge LOTR lover. I think its way much better than Harry Potter, Star Wars etc. -Fly you fools!

Books:I loved reading Hunger Games. It wasn't even popular at those times.I read them all at a moments notice. But the movies was dissappointing for me. Lately ive read Homo Sapiens which was also interesting.
