About Me

I travelled from France to Thailand on a recumbent bicycle, starting from 2014. It took 4 years to reach Thailand. After living 2 years on a tropical island, learning yoga meanwhile , I turned back to Turkey for corona years,
I am back to travel with my partner now.
My partner Murat is a traveller himself. He backpacked around the world for years. Rest of his story is same with mine.
During corona, we seperately moved to a cute seaside town of Turkey and luckliy meet there and fell in love.
Now , it is time to unite our traveler powers for discovering South America!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am on this platform to learn more about the people, culture, the different ways of think. To meet people with stories to listen. Being only a backpacker doesnt really mean that I can learn about these. But thanks to CS and its wonderful people I get the chance to have unexpectable experience and know people that I cant even imagine to meet.
