Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I use to stay in hotels or hostels during my travels. After I met with couchsurfing I discovered that it is the best way to meet with new people sharing the same passions with you.

Even if I cant host you dont hesitate to write me a message we can meet and discover around Istanbul. I can show you hidden spots.

My CS motto: Making friends, discovering new people, here there everywhere!!!

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: I am a music freak. I cant live without listening and discovering new music. My fav music changes according to my mood so if a music touches my soul it is my favourite music for that moment.
Spotify: batuhandrs

Movie: I can name lots of good movies that I love because I really enjoy watching movies. Here are couple of them -The Godfather -Dersu Uzala -Seven Samurai -Pulp Fiction -Into the wild -Mr.Nobody

Fav Book: The Alchemist-Paulo Coelho
(There is no other book that changed my life like the alchemist!)

Culture makes people understand each other better. And if they understand each other better in their soul, it is easier to overcome the economic and political barriers. But first they have to understand that their neighbour is, in the end, just like them, with the same problems, the same questions.
-Paulo Coelho

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

1)Climbed Mt.Agung in Bali and watched the sunrise.
2)Finished a tough alpine climb without enough water in Crimson Mountains.
3)Enjoyed an amazing conversation with NatGeo photographer Steve Winter

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach: I am an engineer but I dont think that you want to learn about some boring engineering staff so I prefer to teach cooler things like: how to longboard, easy life tricks, magic tricks, preparing turkish breakfast, editing videos...

Learn: I am a teenager full of hunger to learn so I challenge you to surprise and inspire me. I am open to learning and becoming a new person. Educate me using your experiences because I need them.

Share: If you gain my trust I can share lots of things but the most importantly I share with you my friendship :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share my stories from around the world. I can cook Turkish food, show some cool music, teach you how not to dance in a club, we can go jogging together or meditate together. I can amaze you with some cool magic tricks. For the rest you have to meet with me :)
