CURRENT MISSION

Motorbike two-up to Australia

ABOUT ME

Hello everyone;

I am a happy, laughy and lively person that likes food. I have recently finished my PhD and have started on a roadtrip from Manchester,UK (where we hosted CS'ers) to Australia (hopefully we'll be hosted by CS'ers along the way).

I am half Turkish and half English, I have lived in Turkey for 16 years before I moved permanently to the UK, I am greatly familiar with both cultures and will probably end up living in Turkey again some point in my life. I enjoy meeting new people when I have the opportunity and sharing stories, experiences etc etc.

I like people, culture, travelling and food. I would say I am a little obsessed about motorbikes,coffee and sourdough.

We are currently travelling two up on one motorbike from UK to Australia. Here is our blog: http://ctscholi.blogspot.co.uk/

PHILOSOPHY

I basically live to eat! :P Joking aside my main aim is to work hard, have a good time and at the same time contribute to society in a positive way ( at least have a go ) and see as much of the world as possible.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I try attend some socials if they suit and don't mind meeting up with people, and host when I can. We are currently travelling so can't really host, but will do in the future :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have met quite a few C.S.'ers over the time through hosting (in our student house), friends houses, travelling and also attending socials locally and whilst travelling.
