About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Discover and share...

ABOUT ME

A rider, an engineer, a traveler, a reader etc. are the simple words which can describe me basically. I'm a civil engineer working in construction chemicals industry. I try to keep a balance between work - family and social life :)). Riding is one of my best pleasure and I can feel the pure freedom on motorbike.

I lived 15 years in Istanbul, which is a perfect compromise between history and entertainment. Since 2011 I have been living in Bavaria, Germany and still not get use to cold, dark and long winters.

I can sum up my philosophy in two words; Discover and Share.

PHILOSOPHY

I hate to repeat myself. Everything in universe change continuously. So no need stay at the same step! I explore and learn as long as I live...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

A friend of mine recommended me to join CS in 2008.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

A friend of mine introduced the CS2 Project before our Iberia vacation. It sounds strange at first "to being guess of someone you haven't known". But it was a perfect surprise for me to feel myself as if I was at home with our Couches in Lisbon and Porto. I decided to be a good couch for everybody with Turkish hospitality. And for me; CS is a good way to resist to capitalist system based on money. Lets do something just for favor and humanity.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The first time I saw a huge volcano (4058m). It makes me to feel modest. I realize how small and weak I am. No need to be arrogant. There are lots of things on the earth which are bigger, higher, stronger and long lasting then human being.

Teach, Learn, Share

CS Spirit can kill the racism. As much we discover the new lands and know new people, we can kill our prejudices. So, to make the world more peaceful place, lets spread the CS Spirit.
