Hey there! I'm Salih, but my friends often call me "Seven." I live in Istanbul, Turkey, and am a third-year economics student. I came to Milan for 6 months for my exchange program. I have a deep passion for traveling and discovering new places; I've explored many parts of Turkey and even had the opportunity to travel solo to South Korea and Japan at the age of 15. In Europe, I've had the chance to visit Germany, Poland, Switzerland.

I'm a big foodie and love trying out new cuisines. Among my future plans is a journey from Italy to Norway, a dream I wish to fulfill.

I like hiking. Until now, I have always tried in snowy weather. Hiking under the snow is very different and difficult but also great expreince. But I've never tried on a sunny day.
I like walking, even in the city. I can walk everywhere, even in big cities. I think it would be nice to take a hike in nature on a sunny day. 😁😁

On this platform, I'm looking to connect with like-minded individuals and explore amazing places together. I look forward to your messages!

Additionally, I would like to mention that my home in Istanbul is always open for hosting in the future. I'm excited to welcome travelers and share the beauty of my city with them!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love exploring cities on foot, even if it gets tiring, as it's always worth the experience. Meeting new people and learning about different cultures is something I enjoy. Now, I'm in Milan for exchange program until April, I'll have classes two days a week, and I plan to spend the remaining days exploring Europe.

I don't limit myself about music, I can listen to music that pleases my ears or it can change depending on the moment, I have a playlist ranging from techno to jazz 😁😁

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

When I was 15, I left home in Izmir, Turkey, went to Japan and traveled for 1 month, there was also a transfer in South Korea and I spent 2 days outside somehow, it was the best experience of my life. I wasn't old enough for CS at that time :)
