CURRENT MISSION

"Life is just what happens to you while you are busy making other plans"

ABOUT ME

We are Alper and Laura, a young couple in our 30s both working full time in Milan, as an engineer and an architect. Alper is a Turkish guy and Laura is an Italian girl.

When we don't work, we travel! That's what we enjoy most, besides good movies, books and food! We are curious to meet people around the world, and that's mainly why we will be happy to open our doors to smart people :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Meeting people with different cultures and points of view is a great opportunity for us!

Alper had an house which was a 100% Couchsurfing one until 2012 (ex flatmate: http://www.couchsurfing.org/profile.html?id=NQXMSF). He changed his home in 2012 to live with Laura. So, you can read the references until 2012 about just Alper. In 2014 Alper and Laura decided to open their home to surfers :)
