ABOUT ME

I am a world traveller who tries to see the positive sides of everything, sometimes too anxious however it's all because I am excited about everything. I have a huge smile for everyone all the time,or a loud laughter actually! I don't find it difficult to meet with new people, love cultural exchanges. Oh man give me a bottle of limoncello I'm the happiest!

PHILOSOPHY

It's gonna sound so cliche yet to simply put: "Be good, follow the good, and embrace the good."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I started Couchsurfing when I decided to travel in Sardinia, then created my profile and saw all those people had been using CS many many times and It seemed really fantastic to me as I travel solo. Then, a host from Cagliari, now a friend of mine sent me an invitation to visit Cagliari once they saw I came from Istanbul. This couple had already been there and fell in love with my city. So here we go, they hosted me in Cagliari, a beautiful city and oh god those narrow Italian streets got me!
Then, what is getting more interesting, My mom came to Sardinia to visit me during my internship period. She is just a regular mom, you know, afraid of those stragers! :) But we surfed once together in Olbia. and then Twice in Cagliari!
Now she is spreading our stories around and saying this Couchsurfing thing is all great, people are so nice which even i haven't imagined like that!
It's great that I or couchsurfing people and its approach changed my mom's point of view, which is the hardest thing ever.

Now it's time to hear your story!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Visiting cinque terre

#ladolcevita

Exchange year Erasmus!

Teach, Learn, Share

When one of the greatest Turkish director Ceylan was awarded with Palme d'Or, he dedicated it to his "beloved and lonely country which he loves passionately"

Well, as is the case for most of the Turkish people, no matter how much I travel around, Turkey is my passion. If you've never been to, or you've done the touristic tour only or you've stereotypes about it, I'd love to talk on it!
This is almost what all we are here for, let's get rid of those stupid ideas on nations, people, countries. That would make things a lot easier, hopefully.
