Hello, my name is Burak. I live in Turkey. I didn't visit any places until I was 30 years old. Now, I love traveling. Since we mainly speak Turkish in my country, I didn't know English. So, I went to Dubai for language school. In Dubai, I also found a job. I worked and started learning English. This way, I began to visit nearby cities and countries. I am married, but my wife lives in Poland for education now. So, I live alone in İzmir for now. If you have any problems with accommodation, you can message me. I live in the city center of İzmir, in the Buca district. My English is still not very good, but it is better than before, and I am still working on it. I love meeting new people and learning about new cultures.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am here because I want to improve my simple English. I want to meet new people and learn about new cultures. Maybe this way, people can help me, and I can help them. It is very nice to be here. This is a new app I discovered, but I like it a lot. It is also very important that it is safe.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I had a very good job in Turkey. I worked for it for a long time. But I realized that I did not want this life. So, I quit my job and moved to Dubai. I had no job and did not know English. Later, I found a job there and started going to language school. I did simple jobs. I earned just enough money to continue my life. This was a success for me because I met people I would never see in my life.

Teach, Learn, Share

I do not have many things to teach you in my life. I can teach you my culture, our food, our behaviors, and thoughts. My English level is not good. So, I studied philosophy at university. I graduated this way. I can talk about this. I also completed a double major in sociology. But I do not know how possible it is to talk about this. But I can learn anything. I am a heavy person, so I am trying to lose weight and be healthy, especially these days. I am interested in meditation. I love computer games. I use virtual reality glasses and I love it.

What I Can Share with Hosts

We can eat together. You can stay with me. Because of my work conditions, I cannot travel with you. But I can host you as a guest.I am a talkative person. I am a positive person. I have one cat at home. She is free to roam in the house. So, I prefer people who do not have allergies. I do not restrict my cat's freedom. She is not a cat that bothers people.
