I'm Batu and 27 yo. I live in Ankara, capital of Turkey. I'm working in a company as mechanical engineer and studying master degree in Gazi University at the same time.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm just looking for a friend to know each other and walk in the city together. I want someone to share their thoughts with me. And I will do the same.

I'm looking for a friend who is honest and doesn't pretend to be someone else. If you think I'm not too weird or strange you can try sending me a message. I would really love to have a friend from other nationalities. It doesn't matter where you're from. I hope to hear from you soon.
