About Me

I am an easygoing person with a lot of interests including languages (i give voluntarely Dutch classes to international students and refugees), theatersport (i played 3 years long improvisation theater), traveling (including Nepal, India, the US, Morocco, Anadusia, etc...) and cooking. I am very interested in different cultures, this is also why i left Turkey when i was 22 and started living abroad: the Netherlands. I love cats and i have one whose name is Ayshe. I love playing with her. So no cat hair allergies. :) I speak English, Turkce anadilim (Turkish), daarnaast Nederlands (Dutch) y un poco Español (Spanish).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I travel a lot (mostly with my best friend from Turkey, Nur)and we prefer to meet people, especially locals instead of staying in hotels. This way, i have now friends from Spain (that i met in France), from Romania (that i met in Spain), from Greece (that i met in Copenhagen) and many more.. And my motto is: get outside, there is always something new to experience there!

Interests

I dance every week, i feel totally free when i am dancing. Also meditating is something i am fund of. Have you ever tried dancing combined with meditation? It is one of the greatest experiences i had!

  • theater
  • yoga
  • meditation
  • reading
  • languages
  • climate change
  • musical theater
  • modern dance

Music, Movies, and Books

I love old Turkish music but i am a big fan of Muse as well. I listened to music i danced to (modern dance), like Music for a dancing mind, Breton madley (azam ali) but also Paint it Black, Are you gonna be my girl? So i have a very broad music interest! My favorite book is "The sorrows of young Werther".

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Traveling alone in Cuba and getting to know local folks. Jumping into waterfalls in the south of France. And many more i cannot even choose from :(

Teach, Learn, Share

Do you want to learn Dutch? I am certified Dutch teacher (as a second language):)
