About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Finish the revision of my ultralight plane and fly it

ABOUT ME

I think I am open minded.
I like travelling. When I was 20 I used to hitchike and visit the foreign friends I had in their countries. Around 25 we created an asociation called planet caravan.

PHILOSOPHY

Try to get to the point to relise that we are all human and nobody is more important than anyone else. But if you have to choose. Choose by yourself and not by anyone else.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I always wanted to be able to host any traveler I met. And I also expected a world with a lot of hospitality. Thats why I think I decided to participate in this.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Couch surfing is not the best way of hosting people, as it would be better to meet just by chance at the street or somewhere travelling.(there are people that just want a place where to stay for free, or believe that your house is a hostel or something like this). Not regarding on that, you can meet really great people and it allows you to realise about all different visions that people have of life and of your own city.

Interests

I like planes. It is not only that I work with them, but I also like flying.
I like playing guitar, and all kind of folk music of the world. I always try to experience the unknown. This can complicate my life when I travel, but I consider it as a way of growing.

Music, Movies, and Books

Kusturica's, Kaurismakki's, and other directors with K at the beginning.
Music.... ( There are so many good musicians, instruments, ) I like turkish music. Flamenco, gypsy music in general. I think they are the best musicians. But I also like Lady Gaga what can I say.
