About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Professional Photographer & Dive Master

To live a life of adventure, travel, and living every moment to the fullest! I love meeting new people, exploring different places, and experiencing new flavors from a different world.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have been in Couchsurfing since 8 years. Met amazing people by hosting and surfing. It is an amazing platform to be for meeting cool people, meet different cultures and learn more of everything for free. The best of being host or surfer is you are already willing to share and exchange anything each other. Mindset and knowing the fact that you can access these cool people via platform is incredible!

Music, Movies, and Books

I am not a smart ass so I hardly keep the names of the books or movies I watch/read :D yeah that's true! I am more math person. Like numbers and problems to make my brain explode. I like challenges :) Generally, I love the action, adventure, history, comedy movies. Books taste of mine related with my movie taste horizontally. I am a huge fan of Adam Levine but i am not a creepy fan ;P Love his music .. My fav series is F.R.I.E.N.D.S. <3

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I stayed with a stranger alone in the hospital all night in Prag.( I could do for anyone again and again) Due to his accident he had it in front of me hitting by a car, i couldn't send him to the hospital by himself. Still, having the moment of seeing him flipping in the air and falling down on the ground... I felt terrible . After applying first aid which i hadn't done until that moment, I stayed the whole night with him to make sure he was ok. Because of having the privacy policy of each patient they have in hospital, they didn't give me any information about him. BUT, 8 months later he found me in facebook coincidentally. I can't express how fulfilling it was to see him standing on his feet and smile he had on his face...

Life is so interesting and incredible at the same time!

FYI, I am still friend with Adam and his family :)

Teach, Learn, Share

All latin dances including brazilian samba, bachata, salsa
As used to be a prof. Kickboxing trainer I can teach kickboxing, teakwondo, muaythai
Anything I have I always try to share, I am a foreigner so I know the feeling of receiving and giving anything to/from anyone

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am Turkish, in my culture the guest is the person you can do anything to make them happy. You may not eat but you feed them! You may not sleep well but you make sure they are comfortable! It is in my genes so I always try to make my friends and guest as comfortable as I can. The only crucial thing for me is respecting one another.
