CURRENT MISSION

write and then write some more.

ABOUT ME

I am told to be a good story teller if I am in the mood.
I love dancing... a lot.

And I'm always down for good food with good company.

I loovee archaeology. I can talk about it for hours...

I love the Aegean. So many stories-past and present-, every shade of green and blue and so many olive trees!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN

I'd love to hang out for a good cup of coffee or a bottle of beer.

Me and my roommate are both graduate students and currently too focused on the academic life. We would like to hear other stories and be made aware that life outside the campus is not some urban legend.
In exchange, I can tell you why Bible is called bible, make a mean cup of espresso and introduce you to some cool folk music from the Mediterranean.

Interests

Mythology, cooking, caricature, modern art, van gogh, traditional dances, museums, back-packing, Turkish classics

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies:
Gladiator (are you not entertained? Are you not entertained?!!)
The Hitchhiker's Guide to Galaxy

Music: I have a soft spot for ethnic/folk music and jazz, the kind you can dance to.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I finished my master thesis (one small step for mankind, one giant leap for me)

Teach, Learn, Share

I dance to the Turkish folk music and am learning to dance salsa and swing. I'd love to learn other dances as well.
I like cooking (although my true passion is baking) and would like to share some recipes and learn a few from you.
Me and my roommate are both graduate students. Ask us about archaeology or linguistics!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I cook and dance! and We have a coffee station in the apartment!
