Hello everyone, this is Berkay, an easy-going, fun, friendly person with a nice sense of humor. I like to see different places and learn about different cultures by meeting new people from different countries, especially foodwise!

I have a BS in Software Engineering and on MBA, currently working for a startup(co-founder). I am an open-minded guy, living in Austin, Texas. My parents living in Marmaris, Turkey, so at least one month a year, I will be living there.

I am a guy who cooks good and healthy. 420 friendly. Also a funny guy that knows how to party or talk. Whatever I do, I do it with music. Walking, running, cooking etc. But come on guys, who doesn't like music. Dancing, dancing, dancing, love it. Not a professional dancer but took a bit NY Salsa and Bachata lessons.

I support social nudism, but my homemates let me socialize only with my boxer shorts :)

To see different places and meeting people from different cultures have always amused me.

I am also a history fun, so If you know stuff, love
to hear them all.

Last but not least, did I mentioned Cooking :). Its a way of relaxation for me. And I am pretty damn good at it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am going abroad a couple of times in a year, and staying some of my friends. So I decided, why shouldn't I spare my room with couchsurfers and stay in their places when I went abroad?

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Motocross on a dust runway, with fully equipped kawa250cc cross monster. The most effective adrenaline pumper I have ever tried.

Also ever tried swim nude or jumped from 20 mt rocks to the sea? It was good.
