About Me

I am a traveller, born in Istanbul (I believe it is one of the most beautiful and historical city in the world), Turkey in 1987. My first experience to ''abroad'' was to Cyprus with my parents, when I was 5 years old :)
I traveled solo to States right after graduating from high school, before starting my university degree. And since then it became kinda great hobby, which changed also my life in a way, when I look at back now..
I love travelling solo and meeting friends or random ppl on the way. I try to be optimistic in most of the things in life. And I try to circulate a good energy around me.. Oh I admit (!) I also CAN! feel, when there's something is not good happening in my environment, which is BAAD! :-)
oh ooh and here s a big yes - for all the solo travelers out there: http://www.gobackpackingthailand.com/10-reasons-why-you-should-go-backpacking-alone/ ! :) have a look, if you r visiting my profile! :-)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to explore the world, see more new interesting places, have more experiences with travelling - and I think that is the best way how to connect to the world, and to other people! I somehow believe in, that we are all connected to each other in a way...
Well totally another reason is, coz of being Environmental friendly! Personally I am not in favor of staying at the hotels just for one/two nights - if it's leisure, green aspect! -Respect.

Interests

photography, hiking, swimming, running, ice skating, and oooh yeah dancing & partying (most probably), enjoying life the fullest! :)
I travel for travel's sake. The great affair is to move.

♥ and of course for the sake of Travelling!!!!
also planning to start ballroom dances - okay that might be added also later on, as it'll be a new hobby ;-)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

oH ThE Hitchhiking experience in Europe was one of the most amazing thing which I've done in December 2014, and most probably I'd continue doing :-)) Two times hitched the same car on the same day!!! :) Fabulous isn't it?
or hitching a foreign car in a foreign city you live (year back to 2008), just because you've missed the last bus by few minutes :)))
of course the motorcycle experiences!
Another, hm oh those beautiful, lovely, silent, colorful sunsets over the lake (thousands of them!)... seeing and experiencing those midsummer nights too! Do you know what I am talking about? Well maybe no? Then go to Scandinavia... You'll know what I am talking about, for sure! ;-)
OR... Seeing and admiring by the beautiful nature, landscapes, view over 2000m. in Turkey... by those breathtaking views on the cliffs of the mountains over the Aegean Sea, or Toros Mountains (Aladağlar), Pontic Mountains - North Anatolian Mountains,.. sunrises and sunsets .....
