Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Connect with global citizens. Exchange memorable parables of life. Create unforgettable memories. Grow as a human being.

Interests

I am genuinely intrigued by human beings. I like to observe and study them like a scientists looking over specimens.

But you know, I, too, am a human being. So, sometimes, unintentionally I participate in the lives of the people I am trying to study.

This is why I am deeply connected to films (independent, not Hollywood) and literature. Because they are all about showing the beauty in our meaningless and yet, short existence.

In the long run, I aspire to be a film director. Hopefully, by then, I have enough compelling stories to share!

P.s. I have already made some short movies. I have them on YouTube! :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Stay in complete random stranger house in turkey whom I met on the same day by chance!

Teach, Learn, Share

I love to teach because it is one of the best way to connect with someone. I love it when I see the light in my students' eyes. When I know they finally understood what I was trying to explain.

In addition, through teaching, I also learn more. I learn better. About the subject. About people. Most importantly, about myself. :)

Currently, I teach coding/programming skills in the field of machine learning and query language part time at a training centre.
