About Me

*I've moved to London and have no place for guests. However, I'd like to meet and taste the adventure of this amazing city together.*

CURRENT MISSION

Feeling the blanks.

ABOUT ME

Promising an enjoyful and learning life to myself needs a bit effort to meet new people. My company to people is said to be an unexpected journey (yes, hi hobbit fans!) I want to keep valuable people around. It makes me feel alive.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is unfair. Kill yourself or get over it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I felt a disturbance in the force.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Meeting and hosting really nice people. Teaching someone a local joke, song, food is amazing. Nowadays I also started to pick some funny stories of my surfers to tell my other surfers haha

Interests

I like art. That's why I stuck into modern art museums, concerts and nice food when I'm travelling abroad :) I'm more into architecture and music, street events, experimental getting lost walks than touristic stuff.

I like cooking. That's why I completed a few experiements on my guests since April 2014! haha. I think the clue to happiness with my guest is "international and different food".

Besides I'm generally exploring new places (both indoor and outdoor), meeting friends, having drinks out, concerts. I like to find nice cafes with different, specialized food. Life is like never ending your hope from your cat of saying "no, i don't want food dear."

Music, Movies, and Books

I admire music. I listen to post rock, alternative rock, experimental rock, jazz, blues, funk, electro and Balkan music. My favorites are Parov Stelar, İbrahim Maalouf, Led Zeppelin, Nouvelle Vague, God is an Astronaut, Gogol Bordello, Goran Bregovic, Beirut, Morcheeba, Hugh Laurie, Vashti Bunyan, Hindi Zahra, The Doors, Calexico, Sia, Pink Floyd and Julide Ozcelik. I had drum lessons for 8 months. I want to believe in that i've a talent for it, but well... No.

Btw, I know a German song. It's a bit pitty actually. "jeden tag zur schule, ah das tut mir leid. Ich habe so viele hobbies doch leider keine zeit." Ja, ganz richtig :)

Trying to read a lot. For some reason I'm about to lose my concentration for "working on" something. My literature taste has changed a bit recently, but still a big fan of historical action, absurd comedy novels and cartoons.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Getting drunk, falling down with a full stability...

Teach, Learn, Share

I've a dream of taking the videos of my hosts/surfers saying "Devlet büze bahmüyür" to camera. (s.c: horsehead)

What I Can Share with Hosts

I've PS4! :) Are you kidding? This's like awkward "What value could you give our company?" question at a job interview.
