Enderstand me if you like to chill with me, be a part to when you visit my place and share the time together.

Born and raised in Amsterdam Dutch/Turkish mixed, a private masseur for a while now.

I like a lot in this life, food, movies, enjoying, thankful, happy, sharing, cooking, cycling, swimming, knowledge, backgammon, traveling, photography, different cultures, helpful, poetry, dinner, drinking wine and liquor or brandy, (all these sharing of course when I can make time and don't work at that times) a lot of creativity what I have and patience to all of future guests in this life.

You are welcome only if you can also offer your host something greats/unforgettable time and moments together, a nice company together in general.

Please don't send me a request because of you are broke or using CS to save money, when you want to be my guest you have to take me at least out of dinner(Sushi or other restaurants, so save the parts of bringing small souvenir/magnets/wine/chocolate or whatever we have it here (And I don't like beer)
I don't use the CS like a lot of people, they are broke or they want to save money so that they can use our spaces just for shower/sleep/fresh up and sharing without nothing?? I'm using the CS to see if there are still great humans around the world, that they really knows what is sharing/caring.

No I don't have other friends who can help you with a place to stay, I don't know for you who is renting because of that you starting a new life here in Amsterdam, please guys stop it!! And don't make from your problem...my problem.

Sorry but for me Cs doesn't means that I have to open my door to anybody, I'm very selective and every time it takes me so much to explain here, or don't you know how to read?? Indeed I have a life to!! And I just decline them because they are not unique/interesting for me otherwise I have to quit my job just to reply you all :)...of course you are visiting the city and having fun, before you want to know the city...first try to know your host, there is more ingredients in us then the city...we live and born here..so please don't use our time/energy/soul/heart/space just by passing by easily and saying goodbye again.

Are you here for festivals/concerts or other meetings/workshop because of that you want to stay by me? Well sorry then but you are not welcome to my place, so easy request so simple decline!

When you are not my guest I'm not a private guide who will show you the city, of course when you will be my guest I try to make some time.

Don't send me friend request without a private message, this is not Facebook.

Do you want to know about the city, then don't bother me by offline sending message here...because of I'm a local doesn't makes me google so that I search everything for you, I have something betters to do, thanks.

No requests like in advance a month or 2/3 months, I don't know what are my plans so how can I promise you to confirm it here, maybe I will also go to vacation?

I accept requests only for minimum 1 maximum 2 days, that is fair enough when I want to know other travelers around the world to.

Just one photo on your profile and less info about you, you don't make any chance by me.

For me counts only a profile of you here on CS, I'm not interested in your Insta or Facebook.

No you can't leave your luggage's/bags here at my place when you are not my guest, so don't send me messages like "Hello I will be in Amsterdam just for a day, can I only leave my luggage/bag at your place, lockers are so expensive, do I look like a storage??

Please take your own towel with you,thanks.
If you are just coming for the city, and forget to have a great time with your host, as you send a request before like "Wow you are cool and have a great profile, we will take you out of dinner, we want party with you together, having drinks and bla bla bla" but there is nothing happening, then please don't bother me and stay away from my comfort zone :)

Why do you want to stay with me? What makes me different then other hosts in Amsterdam? What can we share in general?

A lot of Surfers thinks is so difficult to find a place and complaining? Come on guys is actually difficult for us to host you, a lot of time from us, energy, planning, cleaning, opening our doors with a huge heart, even a private guide ( when I don't have to work as I wrote before), a lot of positive energy, wisdom, school of life, so please don't be unthankful right??:)

Because is not polite to use the hosts like this way, that's why do your best as we do our best for you to in general

Leave my place clean and respect others stuff please ;)
Before this I host around 600 couch surfers from inter rail and so many guests was lucky to stay at my place, and that's why now I'm back on couch surfing start from 0 to hero again. I build it up in 5 years hosting around 600 Couch surfers! From 2016 till 2021 I hosted unknown people and became good friends now🙏

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because it is nice to meet new people in reality, we can learn from each other, having fun, otherwise why you want to be my guest :)

A great time together and I prefer very open minded persons at my place.
I prefer to communicate in reality with my guests, not when you found a free wi-fi at my place and chat the whole time with your friends.

A lot of people they are telling we can share stories, of course we can do that, but how many times can you share the same stories by every new host or guest right?
So that's why when you meet me let's create a new story, new experience with a local together please, then there is always in the future a remembering in our memory :)
I can share with my guests the best moments that they never had in Amsterdam before with a local ;)

Thanks for reading and Enderstanding :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I still do a lot of things, we have to try it right :)
I'm an open book so you can read me, page after page and try to know me.
We start yet!!

I visit The bleu pearl Chefchaouen in Morocco, so beautiful.

I tried with my host in Krakow -23 dry ice with traditional liquor Soplica cherry taste like shots ,Amazing:)

Absinth in Budapest 80 %, damn that was cool and heavy shots.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you life of experiences, no worries I don't charge nothing for that :)

Just be a good listener and the way of your look will change...and your mind will much more clever...hell yeah you can learn a lot from me, because as you remember "I'm an open book read me page after page"

What I Can Share with Hosts

Again I totally understand you are on holiday, visiting here,

Be an open book Rules:

When you visit here just know what you want, your interests doesn't matter what they are... let me know in your messages drink, fun, hangout, walks, cooking, dinner, art, exploring, whatever is in your mind, share it please.

We can share a lot, not everything is high tech and Social media in this life, there are more deeper conversations, listening to each-other in reality and not on a distance, cooking, walking, exploring, cycling in this lovely city. And of course the rest we will see.

I think everyone have to feel comfortable as they want, a lot of us in general, it doesn't matter where we are, still shy, still they are looking like...hmm maybe he/she will judge me because of this?...come on be yourself and comfortable, we live only once in this world.

Even not join me, no problem as well, but please don't bother my privacy too when I'm enjoying ;)

Because I love to breath, and I really care about time, so don't waist my time at all, for the rest I'm very easygoing person you never met before.
