I'm working as co-founder of a hostel/travel brand and art space @hushistanbul @hushgallery

I love seeing the cultural interaction that takes place there in such an open and non-judgemental way.
I get to help create an environment where people can share their lives, stories about places they have visited and spot various exhibitions/concerts.

I am into music, moto travel, bikepacking, skiing and other mountain sports. I play piano and learning guitar now, I will appreciate if you could help me on this:)

You can message me for participating in our weekly bike tours, music events or outdoor activities.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

My India trips

Teach, Learn, Share

I can share my travel and hospitality experiences, give an insight into the art/music scene of Istanbul.
We may also do some sport and outdoor activities together.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can give 1-2 nights for free at Hush Hostels depending on availability. If you want to stay more (you don't have to) you are welcome but with a reasonable price.
If it's not a busy time I can also invite you to stay in my place.
I will be happy to assist you to explore the city especially the Asian side. You can always contact me for some tips.
