Born and raised in İstanbul, I have been working as a fashion designer since 2008. I started dancing lindy hop and authentic jazz dance in 2014 and have been addicted ever since. Dancing is what I love and I love sharing what I learned with new dancers so I started working as a dance instructor in my local dance community.

I love hanging out with friends, going to concerts, festivals, bars, clubs, where we can dance, drink and enjoy everything about this great city. I love travelling. Seeing new places and meeting new people keeps me excited and inspired.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Travelling alone is a great way to meet with new people. I want to share this experience by meeting with the locals of the city where I get a chance to hear their stories, share their lifestyles, and make friends. Hopefully when they come to visit İstanbul, I can be a host and help them explore this great city with a local welcome.
