CURRENT MISSION

Studying and Climbing

ABOUT ME

Our names are Asli and Tyler. Asli is from a beautiful place in southern Turkey, came to Istanbul for university and never left. Tyler wandered to Istanbul from the states a couple years ago, and never left. We teach English to support our coffee, beer, and travel addictions.

PHILOSOPHY

Live every week like it is shark week.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

We have a place for people to stay in a great city, and can show people around if we have free time. If we're working, at the very least we can make recommendations for things to do, then hang out at night. Sometime in the future we would like to surf to couches beyond.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

We joined this year, and we've already had several wonderful guests. Couchsurfing has been great to us so far, the people we've met have been great fun and interesting.
