Overview
About Me
I lived most part of my life in the capital of Turkey, Ankara whereI got my medical graduation. Then i moved to Cagliari, the capital of beautiful Italian island Sardegna.
An essential part of being a doctor is understanding human nature. It's important to get comfortable interacting with people within different cultures, backgrounds, ages, and personalities. I believe that it makes me a better doctor!! =)
I love to travel around the world with friends. Whenever i have time (and of course money=)), i spend it on exploring new places, learning new things, meeting new people, and also tasting local dishes.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
When i first heard CS, i was planning my trip to Copenhagen. A friend that i travelled with was a couchsurfer, so he told me about it. Thanks to CS, i met amazing people and had a great time (which i honestly didn't expect =)) This experience helped me to understand that CS is a way to meet new poeple, learn new cultures and help travellers.
For me, it's not that easy to accept guest but if you need a friend who knows the city or have any problem while walking around the city, keep calm and let me know =)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
When i was on holiday in Manavgat, Antalya, i heard something called "cliff jumping". It sounded a bit scary, but i thought, 'WHY NOT?', so i decided to give it a try. I just stepped to the cliff's edge, said a little prayer, jumped, and hoped for the best. It's probably the most unforgettable moment of my life.
Teach, Learn, Share
I can try to cook some traditional Turkish food for you, but just the simple ones =) and teach you if you are interested.
As you know, Turkey is a country with a fascinating culture and history, so I'd share some of the interesting facts about it.
