Hello! I'm Onur, a passionate traveler and civil engineer from Turkiye. After completing my studies in civil engineering, I began my career in Qatar as a project engineer, contributing to some of the world's most iconic construction projects. My love for travel started in my beautiful homeland and extended to exploring some of Europe's most stunning countries.

Driven by a desire to see more of the world, I decided to take a gap year to immerse myself in new cultures and experiences. I chose to begin this journey in New Zealand, one of the farthest edges of the globe. Over the past eight months, I've had the incredible opportunity to travel across the North Island and South Island , soaking in its breathtaking landscapes and vibrant culture.

I look forward to meeting new people, sharing stories, and creating unforgettable memories. As a guest, I'm respectful, easy-going, and always eager to lend a hand. Let's connect and make our travel experiences even richer together!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am from Turkey.I decided to take a break from our careers to embark on an adventure of a lifetime, exploring new cultures, savoring delicious cuisines, and connecting with incredible people from around the globe.

Right now, we’re on a working holiday visa in the stunning land of New Zealand. For the past eight months, we've been soaking in the beauty of this country, from hiking through its enchanting forests to marveling at its breathtaking waterfalls. As the ski season wraps up and my job at cardrona comes to an end, i am gearing up for an epic road trip from wanaka to the north . I am super excited to meet fantastic hosts along the way.

I love sharing stories, laughing over new experiences, and making lifelong friends. If you’re up for some great conversations, cultural exchanges, and maybe a bit of adventure, I’d absolutely love to stay with you and get to know you!
