Im 28 years old male research assistant in the university and mastering student at the same time. Im from Turkey. I study Cultural Anthropology and now I'm at the beginning of searching process of my thesis which is about the Anatolian Alewite Community in Turkey which my family belongs to as well. Well I dont worship it but specializing on it as a academician and a mastering student. Its a philosophical belief I can give more info about it later on if u are interested :)

Recently Im in Frankfurt in Goethe University assisting a project so will be here for a while. While Im here in Europe I want to travel to some places Ive never had the chance to go since I love exploring new cities and new cultures. While I travel I want to make new friends as well. Get to know someone is one of those things I do with passion as I ask quite much about cultures :D WELL I WAS now Im back to Antioch, Turkey where Im currently doing my work.

Im fluent in Turkish as it is my native tongue. Im fluent in English. I also speak alittle Russian and German. Cant wait to make new friends and explore different places!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Love traveling, cultures, exploring new places and get to know new people. People should be able to travel everywhere without paying tbh. So the cheaper it costs the more places u get to know :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Trekking 350km of the Amazing Lycian Way with Roman and Lycia ruins everywhere and amazing nature and paths that took about 17 days. Camping every night and walking all day was worth of everything for me.

And just to give an assumption about how crazy I am, once there was a huge storm im Antalya, mediternian city of Turkey where grew up also. So basically I love adventure and wanted to swim in that whether! I found myself in the sea swimming being lost in waves, letting them take over me while rain pouring me and everything about it was so amazing. Well there was only me and a drunk russian tourist on the whole beach! I love storms anyway, I also once slept while windows and doors of my house open to rains and storm. Windows and doors making noise at night and me under my blanket :D
