About Me

I came to St. Louis, MO from Istanbul, Turkey for college and then moved to Norfolk, VA for grad school. Just finished grad school and moved to Atlanta.

I like going on motorcycle road trips to explore places. Recently did a trip to New York City. I like working on my vehicles as well. I like to keep my place somewhat clean. I don't like being by myself which is part of why I'm on here. I've been making motorcycle videos on YouTube. You can check them out here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC0Mc_fgnifZonuFIDkJXiLw
If you know Turkish, you can check this out: https://www.youtube.com/okmotorcu

You can also message me if you are in town and just want to hang out. Max # of days I can host couchsurfers is generally 2-3. I can't host you for months or weeks if you are coming for work and travel.

If you're passing through town and need to work on your motorcycle or need something done to it, you can contact me. I have a garage with most anything you'll need.

Hosted enough people that Couchsurfing decided I should have verified membership for a while for free.

Teach, Learn, Share

I suck as a teacher but I'll do my best. All I'd like to learn is your experiences. It's fun to get to know someone.

I'm always trying to learn to become a better listener because I think it's important.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Home, experiences, a bottle of wine
