Hello! We are a married couple living in Istanbul for five years. Our biggest dream is to explore new cultures and visit different countries. We are especially interested in deeply understanding and experiencing Asian culture. With this passion, we decided to leave our regular jobs behind and set off on a one-way ticket to Asia. Our goal is to enrich ourselves with the lessons each new place will teach us. The idea of heading out without knowing where the road will take us excites us.

During our travels, we enjoy connecting with locals, observing their way of life, and discovering their food culture. For this reason, we aim to experience not only tourist spots but also moments that allow us to immerse ourselves in people's daily lives.

Exploring the richness, traditions, and cuisine of Asian culture is very valuable to us. On this journey of self-discovery, we can’t wait to meet new people and share our own stories as well.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing offers a great opportunity not only for accommodation but also to deeply experience local cultures while traveling. Meeting new people, discovering their lives, traditions, and perspectives is something that truly excites us. Additionally, building friendships worldwide and connecting across cultures is something we highly value. As a couple who loves hospitality and sharing, we find this platform ideal for exchanging experiences and stories with like-minded people.

Interests

We love reading books. Music of all kinds is something we absolutely enjoy, and we’re always up for discovering new genres and artists. Watching films is another one of our passions, and we can never say no to a good movie night. We also enjoy amateur photography and are always looking for new ways to improve our skills.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

We made the bold decision to leave our stable jobs and embark on a journey through Asia. It was one of the most courageous and exciting decisions we’ve ever made. For us, it wasn’t just about traveling, but about discovering ourselves, learning new cultures, and giving our lives a new direction.

Teach, Learn, Share

We love meeting new people and learning about different cultures. We are always open to new experiences and enjoy embracing fresh perspectives. Similarly, we are excited to share our own culture and experiences with others. Whether it's by sharing stories, offering insights about our hometown, or exchanging travel and life tips, we believe in the power of connection and the joy of learning from each other.

What I Can Share with Hosts

We love cooking traditional Turkish dishes and would be happy to teach others how to make them. We are also passionate about photography and continue to develop our skills as amateurs. We are organized people and can offer assistance with maintaining order in the house. We’d be happy to collaborate with you to create a comfortable and peaceful living space.
