About Me

ABOUT ME

that sometimes I'm a bit crazy

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I travelled with a friend around Eastern Europe for 2 and a half months and used couchsurfing most of the time. It was a unique experience. Through CS I met so many people who made the trip more interesting.
I used it as well to do 2 trips around Europe in winter, one during five weeks in the UK and one mostly around Germany.
On a 5 months trip around South America I have done a couple of experiences as well.
I'm living in Istanbul for 6 months right now. I live in dormitories at the campus, therefore I can not host anyone right now.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My Eastern Europe trip was simply great. I think CS is one of the best ways to travel.
I used couchsurfing for my UK-trip as well. The first time i did it alone. It was definitely worth it:)
After as many experiences as I did i can still say that not one single experience was bad, isn't this nice?

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I lived a year in Argentina and went to school there (10 years ago):)

Teach, Learn, Share

I love languages, so this is maybe the most interesting thing to teach / learn besides culture in general.
