I am from southern Turkey. Moved to Izmir for college and currently living there.

An easy going guy with a passion for travelling.
I love stuff related to gastronomy. Interested in practicing new languages. Love to go hiking on my free times. Huge fan of horror movies.

Mostly interested in cuisine and natural beauties when im travelling. And of course its amazing to get to learn how other peoples lives are like.

I work as a md, still continuing my residency in ophthalmology . Trying to escape from mediocrity of working life via travelling and meeting travellers.

Used to host and surf back in uni, had wonderful couchsurfing experiences back then.

Deleted my old account due to couchsurfing changing its old concept and demanding monthly subscription. But came back because i missed this atmosphere when I’m traveling.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hiked on the Tatra mountains in southern Poland. I’m not an experienced hiker so it was terrifying to hike on snow near a very sharp slope!

Slept for a night at a camp in Sahara desert. It was near to a town called Merzouga in Morocco.

Visited Edinburgh at the time of the Fringe festival.

Tried very good pintxos in San Sebastian Spain.

Had a Fado experience in Porto Portugal.

Volunteered in eco farms twice. One in Poland and the other in Italy. It was thanks to a website called Workaway.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can help you to practise your English.
If interested i can teach you how to perform CPR and basic first aid. I think everyone needs to know that.

Would love to learn about your cultural habbits, daily life in your country, maybe weird customs.
Definitely learn more about dishes from your country’s cuisine.
