Merhaba!
I'm Kerem from Istanbul, Turkey. Currently, I am a university students who loves to go on backpacking trips during my breaks. I have lived in Turkey, India and USA and solo-travelled countries in europe and latin america.

I am looking forward to meet fellow travellers/hosts in the countries I visit, as I find travelling much more valuable when experiences with good company. I love learning about new cultures and ideas through meaningful conversations.

I love taking late night walks, tasting new street food and local beers, watching football, hiking in new trails and camping near lakes or the sea. I am an avid fan of Galatasaray (turkish football team)! I also play the guitar!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hitchhiked for an entire day in rural India and spent many beautiful lakes and villages.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can cook a variety of Turkish dishes such as an eggplant dish called Ali Nazik, a delicious lentil soup, a bean stew and a pretty sick salad ;)

I can share with you several genres of Turkish music, and even teach you couple chords/guitar tricks.
