I have been living in Istanbul since 2013 working as casting agent (tv commercials mainly), actor, painter, language teacher, guide and doing a few more jobs.
As we may live together for 1 day or more you should know that I don't eat anything that has an animal origin and I expect my guests to do the same while being at my place. Yes, I'm vegan, but no worries, I won't try to convert you to my lifestyle.
If you are a freeloader, a very silent person, a self-centered chatterbox, a dirty/untidy traveler please refrain from contacting me.

My home is a super central flat 5 minutes walking from Kadikoy ferries and airports shuttle bus.

I am the owner of the main casting agency for foreigners in Istanbul, so I work a lot and mostly from home. If I am not around the city for some shooting set most probably I will be sitting in the office/living room in front of my laptop.
Almost every day I work till late in the night, but visitors have anyway their privacy as they sleep in a private bedroom on the opposite side of the flat.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING:
I used to organize several CS activities in Italy and in Istanbul.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE:
From 2009 to 2016 I have been hosted in 25+ countries and I have hosted a lot of people in the several flats I have been living in. Both in Italy and in Turkey.
Some of my CS guests and hosts have become great friends of mine. Anyway through CouchSurfing I have experienced unpleasant situations too. Unfortunately a lot of people misuse this wonderful community of travellers considering it just as a free of charge alternative to hostels.
