CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

Most people describe me as a laid-back and relaxed person. In reality, it is the little kid in me who doesn't want to take life too seriously and be a compliant office robot.

One of my passions is reading travel books and blogs. I admire the sense of adventure those brave travellers have. For me it's not about seeing new places, it's more about the sense of freedom travelling gives me.

PHILOSOPHY

Let's make the world a better place.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have been a member since November 2009 and I try to host as much as I can. I think I've turned down only one request and that's because I was going away the same day.

I've been hoping to couchsurf myself, but I haven't had the opportunity yet.

I attended one of the CS activities in Bucharest and it turned out to be one of the best nights out I had for some time :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My first CS experience was hosting a French couple in 2009. They were a lovely couple on their way to Australia. There aren't many foreigners passing through Nigde, so it was also a very new experience for my housemates.

Since then I had more visitors, they were all good experiences. The only downside is that most of the time one or two nights is not enough with such interesting people.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I climbed 3723m to Emler, one of the Aladaglar peaks. It was the most challenging physical experience I've ever done.

I want to do it again in the near future.
