I promised myself to be active in Couchsurfing for 2019😌I am a little girl, called Leyla. I have done my bachelor’s degree in the field of Public Affairs. I am an open-minded, positive and very communicative person. I love to make friends from all over the world. I was a member of AIESEC organization. the largest youth organization in the world during 2014-2017, where I had a chance to help young students.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

The first reason behind my Couchsurfing is TO LEARN NEW THINGS. I WANT TO EXPERIENCE A NEW CULTURE FROM THE INSIDE-Couchsurfing allows you to dive in headfirst. You may not walk away knowing all the details of country's history and society, but you’ll come away with a sense of what it’s like to walk around in the shoes of a that country's citizen, even if just for a few days. I WANT TO BREAK OUT OF MY COMFORT ZONE- When most people travel, they’re surrounded by their friends and family. They eat with them, sleep in the same hostel/hotel rooms with them, ride the train with them, and go to bars with them. Sometimes I travel this way too, and sometimes it can be fun. But it’s not the greatest way to fully experience another culture, and it’s definitely not a good way to escape from that safe little bubble that surrounds so many travelers and protects them from really integrating themselves into the cultures of the places they visit. Showing up at a stranger’s home, and sleeping on their couches is a pretty intense thing to do for most people. Not knowing what to expect is a nerve-wracking feeling, but also an exciting one, and is very often insanely rewarding. I WANT TO MAKE NEW FRIENDS-The Couchsurfing experience is most often about cultural exchange. They can learn about who I am and where I come from.I WANT TO TO TAKE A BREAK FROM PLANNING- it is not fun to make the detailed list of all the places to I need to go and things I need to see. I believe that the person who can host me has more information about where to go and my schedule can change based on the recommendation she or he will give me. I ALSO DO NOT WANT TO BREAK MY BANK ACCOUNT))- As a student, I want to travel many countries without spending much money.
