About Me

CURRENT MISSION

see as much of the world as possible

ABOUT ME

I am a very maternal and giving person and get a great maternal satisfaction when I am looking after people so when I'm able to host you will be well looked after! Being able to provide and look after people is of central importance to me, which is why I really want to pursue a career in nursing and work in charities abroad.

I embrace my Mediterrean/Turkish roots and am lucky enough to have grown up with a foot in two cultures which has been conflicting at times but has taught me a lot.

I like to not get too bogged down by the seriousness of life, so you will find out very quickly that I have a very mischievous side and am always up for a playfight and or a good prank!

I love travelling and constantly looking to experience the crazyness of life, and will stay up till 8am dancing and talking and drinking! I am constantly intrigued by other people and cultures so I will ask a lot of questions and listen well to anything anyone has to share!

PHILOSOPHY

I believe that what goes around comes around and being kind to others and offering a helping hand when others need it is important because it is part of what makes us human and no man is an island.

Music: i like everything except metal and especially heavy metal and chart music although I will know all the words to the majority of the songs and if drunk enough will enjoy a good dance too!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Seeing the glaciers in Patagonia were absolutely incredible and doing a five day trek through Torres Del Paine was insane, and mountain biking down Death Road in Bolivia was terrifying!

Teach, Learn, Share

I would like someone to teach me to carpent and learn how to make really good cocktails and would love it if someone could teach me Spanish.
I can teach you how to cook but you will have to be my sous chef to start with.

Countries I’ve Lived In

Spain, Turkey, United Kingdom
