Hi! I’m Ella — an open-minded and curious traveler, currently based in Ankara, where I’m doing my MBA. I’m hoping to start a PhD somewhere in Europe in the near future.

I love discovering new places, meeting people from different backgrounds, and sharing good conversations over food, music, or a walk around the city.

I had to delete my old Couchsurfing account and couldn’t get it back, even though I had about 10 references — so I might look new here, but I’m not new to the Couchsurfing spirit :)

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

As someone who often travels solo, I love using Couchsurfing to connect with kind, open-minded people along the way. It’s not just about a place to stay — it’s about shared experiences and human connection.

Just to be clear: I’m not here for dating. If I feel someone has other intentions, I simply don’t reply.

Morceaux de musique, films et livres

I’m more of a podcast person than a bookworm — I enjoy listening to things about psychology, culture, or real stories while walking or traveling.

Music is always around me — I like anything with emotion, from chill vibes to Latin rhythms.

Movies? I go for ones that make you think or feel something deep (but I enjoy the occasional light comedy too!).

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

Traveled solo across Europe on a tight budget — stayed with locals, made real connections, and proved to myself that adventure starts with saying yes.

Enseignez, apprenez, partagez

can teach some languages I know and would love to learn yours too.
Happy to share travel stories, deep talks, music, or just cook something together and laugh.
