About Me

I am an intern at Trakya University School of Medicine. At the same time, I enrolled in a PhD on Immunology of the Infectious Diseases.
I worked as a receptionist for years. I think these night shifts are something like a simulation of a trip beyond the world. I wondered every time the thoughts of the people and their thinking systematic. Honestly, I do not like dogmatic and authoritarian minds. But my sense of wonder pushes me to listen to even every crazy idea. Yes, I am talkative a little, but only on demand.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To hear different ideas. Learning from others' experiences.

Interests

On ecology, I mostly focused on the harmful effects of hydroelectric power plants and wind turbines. I gave some seminars on these issues in academic purposes and non academic purposes. I sent many articles to nationwide newspapers and magazines. I travelled to Amsterdam, Paris and many cities and villages of Greece to speak at ecology meetings and festivals.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

To live an exceedingly ordinary life

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach repairing some electrical devices, and plumbing.
I want to learn local idioms. I think it is an efficient way to understand cultural accumulation.
I will be happy to share my ideas, experiences and memoirs of my humble life, if anyone wonders.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can run discussions. Especially on ecology, direct democracy, political history of turkey and more.
Can prepare some local food for curious tasters.
