Hi there! I am Selim from Ankara, Turkey.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I don't wanna be biased against my own culture, but we (Turkish people) are highly confined within our borders and I, as a member of this culture, am a bit like this. This is why I am on Couchsurfing: to break the borders, to meet new people who can help me do this...
