Overview
About Me
"Were this world an endless plain, and by sailing eastward we could for ever reach new distances?" I'm Ali, am born in August 1994. Yet I had a short life so far, I've experienced many things. Been in over 10+ countries, read 1000+ books etc. I love music, dancing, smiling, wondering, discovering new places, going on trips, watching movies with the person I care about, sightseeing, star watching, space etc. The list of my favorite things is really long, maybe that is why I enjoy much life. Currently I study Astronautical Engineering (Rocket Science!) in the University of Turkish Aeronautical Association. Still there are places I've never been before and I want to learn about, like I never been in Japan, and I can't stop myself about Japan and Japanese people, it's like a born mark that I've been carrying all my life. I don't know much Japanese language but I am willing and curious about learning it. And of course I want to spend some time in London!
I'm quite a funny person. I find life interesting and enjoyable. I love romanticism. I am patient. I work much, but also I make sure I spent time with my loved ones and for myself. I take care of myself, but I am not selfish. My blood type is A and if this would give a clue about me my perfume is Calvin Klein Eternity Aqua.
I am looking for anybody, culture exchange, chit-chat, meeting and knowing about new peoples. Lastly I love sending and receiving letters!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I love culture exchange, meeting new peoples, learning much different perspectives, touching another person's life for hours or days (but yet trying to give his/her best ones). Maybe it is because I want to make sure that every single second of me life counts, maybe because that I want to leave proves that I've existed, I've been on earth.
Well that is also due to accommodation culture I've risen with(Turkish culture), it's like you love guests so much! Finally we don't know what surprises may come a stranger with, that excites me much. Having long conversations, trying to learn and share as much as in a limited time.
Interests
I love much building rocket and satellites. But one of my prefered hobby is to craft gifts. Gift like having secret compartments and special codes leading to much bigger surprises. I'm quite creative, I love writing novels, short stories, poems in my free times. Watching the night sky with telescope, I love it! Also going on hiking, then find a beautiful sight to read a chapter of a mind blowing book. I have so much hobbies.
