Independent strong-minded, happily married travelling person, who is so tired of being seen and received by many only for my gender.

PLEASE don’t send me requests if you are planning to host/surf/meet with the objective of having intimate relationship There are other easy and handy platforms for that purpose. When you do so, your intentions can not be hidden and you make us female solo travelers feel very uncomfortable.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am an avid Traveler, after the Pandemic i wanna interact with more local people when i travel . I do not like staying at hotels and resorts , for me that is not a real way of exploring any culture. I wanna hear and share the good and the bad with people that i m surrounded.

Interests

I love cooking, independent movies, pottery, music and dancing. Did I say dancing?

Music, Movies, and Books

Its so hard to list just a few of my favorite music, movies, and books . some of my favorite movies are Il Postino, Whale rider, Cinema Paradiso, Intouchables, Finding Neverland, and Life is Beautiful. And for the books, I love the 100 years of Solitude, Perfume, 1984, Seagull. For music its so broad, but I sure do like anything with good rhythm.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Despite all the societal barriers and expectations, I taught myself to accept everyone for who they are, with no judgment, and let them make and walk on their path.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach English and Turkish (even though might be hard to find someone who wants to learn Turkish 😂) , I ‘d love to learn Spanish, Arabic and Japanese myself. I also wanna learn about every person's story when our roads collide. I would ask Why, when, and how they got where they are and would love to be able to ask if anything I can do to help, share, learn or simply do for them.
And just gonna put it out there , i am a good cook , and thats something i d love to share with people i am with.

What I Can Share with Hosts

My smile, sense of humor, positive energy, and cooking knowledge along with cooking. And most importantly laughter and maybe tears.
