Hi everyone!
My name is Ilker and I'm a 22 years old law student from Turkey.

I enjoy traveling, meeting new people and discovering different cultures, listening to music, playing the guitar.

I have 2 cats, one named Nyx (after the greek goddess of night, since she's all black :D) and the other Pamuk (which means cotton in Turkish). I also love dogs.

I'm on Erasmus right now, attending the University of Bordeaux in France! Which is why I can't host anyone in Turkey.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like traveling and meeting with new people, getting to know other cultures and generally having fun. Couchsurfing is just the perfect platform to do all these stuff.
