Hi, I'm Nida! I live in İstanbul. I recently graduated and now doing something that i wanted to do for a long time: Travel freely! I love exploring different cultures, places, food and traditions but besides all of that what excites me the most is exploring people. Well there is a reason why i studied psychology! Wherever I travel, connecting with good people is always what makes it special for me. I am not a big sightseeing person, I like to get to know what local people are doing and just blend in!

In Summer 2023, I backpacked around Germany for 1.5 months visiting friends and meeting new people. It is really a lifestyle I like and I want to keep doing it. Starting from September i'll be on my next trip, starting from Balkans and moving up to Central and Northern Europe. Hope I can meet nice people on Couchsurfing while im doing it!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It's a great platform for travelers like me who prefer local experiences rather than touristy sightseeing. That's why im here to experience it as a surfer and gives this experience to other surfers as a host.

Teach, Learn, Share

I did my bachelors in Psychology and i loved it. Although its not a career i want to pursuit in anymore, I still like to talk about it very much. If you are curious as to anything regarding human psychology, ask me! I've been learning to pole dance for 1.5 years. I'd love to teach you some moves if we ever find a pole somewhere! I love trying out new cuisines and can say that I'm a good cook. I am open to learn and teach new recipes. Dancing is when I feel the most free. Introduce me to your favorite dance moves!
