CURRENT MISSION

Help building a community in Rome, through urban gardens and bike kitchens.

ABOUT ME

Grew in a house with a garden full of fruit trees and a terrace view of Bosphorus in Istanbul. The city grew and became too hectic for me. I moved to Rome where there are moments in which everything stands still. I found a garden with fruit trees, a terrace with a view, with great people in it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I usually get hosted by or host people who doesn't know couchsurfing. I tell them about my experiences and hope they'll join us.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

The first time I was couchsurfing, couchsurfing probably didn't exist. I met three slovenian girls in Rome when fire dancing, they accomodated us three nights, lost the contacts, kept the memories. I hosted two japanese girls at my grandma's, it was hilarious seeing people understanding each other without the need of a language.
