CURRENT MISSION

to find out what the real life is, then live that 'real' life :)

ABOUT ME

I am working in department of clinical research in a pharmaceutical company in Istanbul. And dreaming about my future 'round-the-world trip'.

PHILOSOPHY

I don't want to be an ordinary person who works all the time of her/his life. I always want to take a breath. That's why I'm here actually!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

A friend of mine told me that this website was excellent, so here I am!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My first being hosted experience was in Milano and it was a great chance to see how to be a guest of a person we haven't known each other beforehand. I also hosted and met many wonderful persons from CS. I have many speacial friendships thanks to Couchsurfing and definetely recommend to all people to use this website!

Interests

I love rhythm of everything. I play drums and whatever I find to keep the rhythm.
I like to learn new languages. Lately I have been quite busy because of working and studying at the same time, but hopefully I will finish my master's soon.
Reading a good book accompanied by a cup of tea or watching a movie relaxes me.
I enjoy observing crazy people and children.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I saw that we have no borders between our hearts. Nationality, language and the other bullshits are not important to communicate.

Teach, Learn, Share

Yes! Maybe this topic one of the best goals of Couchsurfing. I can basicly teach you, for example, some Turkish words that you want to learn. Also many things about my culture and maybe some pharmaceutical facts that only shown at faculty of pharmacies :p

It would be precious to learn some words from your language,too(not only the nasty ones please!). And to see your customs, your way of life...

Last but not least; to share the moments together, maybe for the first and the last time in our lives. To meet a new person from another part of the world!
