CURRENT MISSION
not to forget

ABOUT ME
I am a graduate student, live music and performance arts addict and I am really curios about people. I want to know about them, I want to understand them.

I am pursuing my PhD in Electrical Engineering at UCLA. Altough I don't have a lot of time to travel, I try to make use of every single chance that I can couchsurf!

I can get excited from a lot of different stuff. Sometimes work, sometimes a cat, a song, a poem, a book, a candle, a radio story, an IPA or a person.

I developed great friendships with my past fellow couchsurfers and hosts, I mean it. Yeah, CS is great and I've never met a single un-cool person through CS yet.

Usually I forget things very fast including my journeys that's why I am trying to make my travel adventures as remarkable as possible and that's where CS comes in!

Что привело меня на Couchsurfing

I surfed in Europe and USA, and established great friendships, shared amazing moments with CSers. As cheesy as it sounds, I think this is a platform that actually contributes to the world peace!

Учу, учусь, делюсь опытом и информацией

I am willing to learn anything that I dont know! But of course I dont have to learn something necessarily.I can teach playing piano, anything about musicals, cooking some Turkish food, playing darts and how to explore LA! We can also go to some musicals or plays, see some live music if you are willing to. I am a huge fan of performance arts and totally addicted to live music. Just let me know that in your request.
