About Me

I'm a feminist and a social worker.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

As a matter of I understood through the life I experienced and have been reading; adopting less things in life but meeting new people and tasting different food, experiencing different traidition of other societies and comparing with mine feels good! A new motto of my life like; "the Monk who sold his Ferrari". I have never been rich to have a Ferrari but still, the idea of buying a Ferrari in the future is already sold!

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach: Turkish history as; Ottoman Women's Movement, Turkish Cinema, Turkish folk music, culture, language, food, Bollywood cinema.
Learn: I would like to host visiters that I can learn new things. I don't mean to be pragmatist in this respect but coachsurfing should not be a place for only hosting and doing nothing. So to serve better this idea, the people that I host should be sharing a lot with us.

What I Can Share with Hosts

My home and occasionally dinner when I'm available due to the work reasons.
Not more than 2 people I can accept.

Countries I’ve Visited

Bangladesh, Belgium, Denmark, France, Germany, India, Jordan, Netherlands, Niger, Nigeria, Switzerland, Uganda

Countries I’ve Lived In

France, Germany, Turkey
