Hey there! I’m Aykut, a curious soul from Turkey living in Hong Kong. I’ve been exploring the world one city at a time, capturing moments through my camera lens and sharing them on my YouTube channel “Yolduslerim.”

I’m all about deep conversations, spontaneous adventures, and trying weird local snacks (yes, even bugs in Bangkok!).

I believe Couchsurfing is more than free accommodation — it’s about stories, culture, and human connection. Let’s share a meal, a walk, or just a good laugh together.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I use Couchsurfing not just to find a place to stay, but to connect with locals, hear their stories, and create authentic travel memories.

As someone who travels often, I love learning how different people live, think, and dream. Hosting or being hosted — it’s all about building bridges, not borders.
