About Me

Merhaba! :) I am an outgoing, adventure-seeking person who likes to live to the fullest! This is why I am somehow always busy. I consider myself to be funny, friendly and open-minded, and am open to changes. I mostly try to step out of my comfort-zone to be a better, different person and learn new stuff. Lately I don´t like to plan a lot, but that changes every once in a while, sometimes I plan through all week and sometimes I just go spontaneous!
I like to ask for a challenge to people I meet who change/have a huge impact on my life. The rule is I have all my lifetime to complete the challenge! And as Long as I have my whole life to complete the challenge, I am sure I will manage :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Meeting new people, making friends from all over the world & going on adventures with random people has always been my biggest hobby. Couchsurfing is a great fit for all of these! I guess it all started with me going for an exchange year in Germany(14/15), that´s when my passion for travelling and ;making international friends developed. I have hosted people as well,(sadly which are not on couchsurfing), it was just a great experience to show them around and discover my own city with them, since your guests provide you with another perspective.

Interests

I really like Sports/ Working out in General, keeping my body active. Sadly, I haven´t been drumming in a long time, but I also enjoy drumming quite a lot.

Teach, Learn, Share

Nobody exists on purpose.
Nobody belongs anywhere.
Everyone is gonna die.
Come watch TV?
-Morty(from Rick and Morty)
Altough this quote might seem depressive, if you watched the show and know the context, you will see that it just means sometimes it is not worth to be sad, and you just have to let go of your problems and simply, chill and don´t try to change things that you are not in control of. So, go watch the show :)
