Psychology student. I grew up in Turkey, but I'm currently working on my bachelor's degree in the US. I love to travel, attend music festivals and do volunteer work during summer.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

During my travels, I have been staying in apartments or hostels but after my WWOOFing experience last summer, I saw that staying with hosts is much better to experience new cultures and meet new people. So, I'm looking for hosts to stay with now!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hiking in the Utah canyons was an amazing experience. I think that nature can teach us a lot, plus the landscapes made me feel like we were on another planet.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm open to learning about almost anything, especially new languages!

I've taken a recent interest in analog photography. So if you have an old film camera sitting in a drawer we can try to figure out how to use it.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can teach you some Turkish, or share interesting things about psychology, cinema and music.
