Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Trying to graduate. Making money in a chique fine dining restaurant in karakoy district of Istanbul. Travelling around neighbour countries whenever I got the chance. Living in order to find joy and inner peace.
ABOUT ME
Studying journalism in istanbul university. Worked as a cameraman assistant in government television. Briefly worked in several national TV channels, mostly in newsrooms'. Doing waiter's job nowadays. I decided media is not for me. After my graduation I guess i'll try my luck with tourism. Or i'll just travel around the world till I die.
PHILOSOPHY
Haven't found one yet, still growing up (:
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Since I don't have my own place, hosting is not an option. Nonetheless I always try to guide and help my local friends' guests. I'm requesting couches till I move to a comfortable place...
As to why I am on couchsurfing, I think one's own world gets bigger and wider with other people. I'd rather know hundreds of worlds than my own. A narrow mind is something I wouldn't want to have.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I've been to this little village called "Kandovan" in Iran. I saw these volcanic rocks carved in shape of caves. There were actual people living in those caves unlike the ones I've seen in Capadocia. Scene was ancient.
