About Me

I am a postgraduate student, a solo traveller, a good reader, a lover of the movies known as art house films, a story writer and a person not living without poems.
Kindly, friendly, easygoing, not wanting to disturb anyone. To same extent very fragile and ready to share the last piece of his bread with others.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I collect stories from the people i meet. Everywhere i go and everyone i meet brings a new look and changes me. I like changing and not finding myself the same after coming back home. So that's why i am here.

Interests

As i said above i am interested in human being, the books explaining the others to me and make me more tolerant. The movies showing a mirror to us.
I am also interested in poverty and the people being in need. When i arrive somewhere, outskirts are the first places i want to see.

Music, Movies, and Books

Kieslowski, Polanski, Bergman, Trier, Nuri Bilge Ceylan are my best directors.

I like the poems of Shakespeare, Baudelaire and all of Turkish poets.

Books, of course it is very difficult to sort out, but some of (international) the writers i have read in many times are Gogol, Dostoyevski, Nabokov, Pamuk, Salinger, Plato, Chekov, Shakespeare, Brecht, Mayakovski and so on.

The kinds of music i d like to listen are Jazz and classic. I like much Edward Elgar's Cello Concerto and the all songs of Ludovico Einaudi.
