Hi!

We are a couple who has been backpacking the Balkans this autumn and decided to spend our last month in Turkey!

Got the idea from a turkish friend that we should try surfing a couple of couches while were here, to travel deeper and get to know this intriguing country better.

We are easy going folks, very tidy and loves good conversations over hot çay but don’t feel that you have to entertain us :)

Thank you for reading and hope to see you soon

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like to see the real country beyond the curtains of turist sighseeing buses and mainstream barcrawl hostels - and I can't think of a better way than spending time with locals and like-minded people to do this, it's all for the experience!

Interests

Reading, Hiking, Movies, Travelling (oh really?), Video Games, Food - good FOOD! Long Walks, Swimming, Capoeira, boxing and martial arts in general, Yoga, Writing, Music: I've played the guitar for 18 years! If you got a local bar or bewery you enjoy, make sure to share it with me!

Recently tried slacklining and loved it! Have also done some rock climbing and would love to experience it again!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Gazing out over Cambodia from the "Prasat Preah Vihear" - the temple of the mountain gods - far away from reality. Visiting Komodo and swimming with hundreds of huge manta rays - just breathtaking!
