Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

No couchsurfing yet! Only hosting a couple of lovely people. It is fun anyway!

Interests

Books, reading everything I come across; music of all kinds, singing, watching live performances, collecting concert dvds, polyphony, choirs; travelling, getting lost in an unknown city, meeting people, chatting; skiing, snowboarding; watching movies (like europeans more); cooking, learning new recipes, tasting different foods; each and every part of Istanbul, its history, diverse culture, multiplicity of inhabitants...
