About Me

I am 27 and working as a Lecturer at Istanbul University, also doing MA in Journalism. I love meeting new people and making friends from all over the world. I really enjoy sharing and learning about different cultures and religions because I believe this is the best way to break down the prejudices.

I used to play volleyball (almost for 10 years), I do not play now but I like trying different types of sports like wakeboard, snowboard, ice skating etc. I am quite keen on nature. So, I go camping in the nature as much as possible. I LOVE spending quality time in nature with my friends and beloved ones.

And family comes first.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have been travelling for years and I really enyoj meeting new people from all over the world. During my journeys, I have been hosted by other friends or sometimes stayed at hostels, airports, train stations etc. I am not a luxury freak, the most important thing for me is to see the best places in the cities, taste the delicious local dishes, meet new people, make friends and save some precious moments from all over the world. And of course, when I find a kind and friendly host, that makes my trips even better.

Besides, I really like guiding my foreign friends (if I have free time) in one of the most beautiful cities in the world, Istanbul... I think Couchsurfing is the best way to meet the local people and find a place during my trips. And I hope to meet more people from different countries in this way. That is why I am on couchsurfing. Hope to see you here or there, folks.
