CURRENT MISSION

Saving Private Ryan !!

ABOUT ME

I guess I can be described as spontaneous but dependable, imaginative, creative, scientific (is this some sort of oxymoron?? Anyhow, neeext!!), fun and non-serious (depending on the context). In addition, I'm a senior college student in the US, majoring in Neuroscience and English. I enjoy travelling, meeting new people, and exchanging experiences.

PHILOSOPHY

When I read Orlando by Virginia Woolf for the first time, I felt prompted to go on a personal odyssey and achive my self-realization. Since then, I have aimed to go beyond the borders dictated by society and be part of a transcendental unity.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am planning to be part of this cool community by meeting new people through a coffee or drink, hosting them or CSing at their places.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My ex-roommates and I have hosted several CSers in our apartment in Istanbul before. I met one of the coolest people ever in the world through the CS (Elizabeth Avila, you're the best!!!). Later on, a nice Chicagoan hosted me and my friend a few months ago. We had an amazing time altogether!!
