---------------------------------------------------------
Hello all!
I've been living in Dublin for the last 2 years. Before that I spent around 4 amazing years in Athens, Greece.
Can not describe myself as a frequent traveler, but I'm trying to find unique and not so popular places to visit as much as possible. What I mostly do while traveling is doing the things I love doing the most when I'm at home, such as; listening to music, writing, reading, playing music (if I could bring something to play) and eating of course.
I studied Sociology and Philosophy, and these are my passion with music to live more and more on this world, so having long talks is probably my priority while seeking new stuff to do.
Feel free to contact me if you are around Dublin. Even if I can not host people in my current setting, I'm usually open to meet new people around.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I'm couchsurfing, because these recent inventions like AirBNB are driving urban areas to let gentrification policies to be more widespread and causing thousands of people to move out their homes because of these forced change in the neighborhoods which happen swiftly.
Couchsurfing enables us to meet each other, without seeking interest from each other. We do this, because we care about people, and for now, there's no better means of meeting new people if you are traveling around, or want to meet people who travel around.
As humans, other people are the biggest capital we can ever have. That itself must be more than sufficient gain from life. That's why we are couchsurfing.
Interests
I have many interests; music, literature, cooking, philosophy, social sciences, visual arts, architecture and so on. The more important thing about these interests is the fact that you may encounter millions of others who would be interested in these but not so many are into those for making the world a better place unfortunately.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I nominated myself for the local government in Turkey, in 2014 and finished the elections as the runner up.
Teach, Learn, Share
I find this question excessively ambiguous. We can learn so many things apart from what was intended, so I'll pass and leave to the experience itself.
What I Can Share with Hosts
I can share stories, for which I'm sure there are plenty of those.
