CURRENT MISSION

To feel the soul of Istanbul.

ABOUT ME

I live to explore new ways of walking. I search for our commonality and at the same time that which maintains our uniqueness. Limits and boundaries encourage my creativity. I seek the light and recognize the dark.
I'm not dead yet.

PHILOSOPHY

How 'bout? Yes love.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am not so active yet in any particular cities Couchsurfing community, but I have been hosted a few times and will love to host folks in Istanbul.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

So far most of my experiences meeting CSers has been super positive. My hosts have been honest, generous, and caring.

We have finally been able to host some delightful people. May this path continue.

Lehren, lernen, teilen

Teach me language. Teach me music and stories and recipes and I'll teach you how to tie your shoes in a more efficient way. I know some face saving exercises if you are concerned about wrinkles. Help me learn history and I'll help you navigate international bureaucracy.
