I am Oğuz from Istanbul, Turkey. I am a mobile test consultant in IT sector who is the biggest technology company in Turkey. I like to be social, hanging out with my friends, travelling with them when I have the time. People usually say I am a positive, sympathic and sharing man, with good communication. Also I think that I am an open-minded and unprejudiced man. I am a sports lover, currently swimmer, former basketball and football player, regular runner.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I travel sometimes alone sometimes with my friends. Therefore my first reason to be here is not saving money but meeting the locals in order to make my trip more entertaining and fun as travelling alone sometimes can be boring. In addition to all these, I can keep the accomodation budget in my pocket.

Secondly, I have my own apartment so I am able to help you with hosting. I can show you around in my city Istanbul like historical places, funny entertainment, tasty foods, drinks and of course nonstop nightlife . You can write me if you want a beautiful Istanbul tour :)
