Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I travel not just to 'look at buildings' but to meet new people, know their stories, exchange a bit of my life with them. People and places are my interests. Through Couchsurfing, I hope to meet new people, know the local life, trade stories, experiences, and make new friends.

P.S.:
1.) I have noticed that many CSers offer massages, haircuts, yoga lessons, reiki etc. It is a strict no-no for me. I am not comfortable with any bodily contact other than a handshake. My personal space is a good one arm distance and I hope everyone I meet on here respect that.
2.) "Private room" means separate room for guests.
3.) CS is not a dating website. Please do not treat it like one.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Seen the insides of Hagia Sophia, flew in a balloon over the fairy chimneys of Cappadocia, swam in the Aegean sea, bathed in the hot springs of Pamukkale, made pots on a pottery wheel from scratch, published a short story in a magazine.
