Hey there,
I'm Hakan and I've been living in İstanbul/Turkey since I was born.
I'm a physical therapist graduated from Marmara University.

I can describe my personality as kind-hearted, helpful, open-minded, honest and sincere.

I usually go with the flow as long as I'm lured into it. It gives me great pleasure to make lots of friends that I can share my memories with.

I loathe being disrespected and lied to !

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

From my point of view, meeting new people is great value to expand my horizons because they can help me experience things from a different perspective.

Couchsurfing is a great chance to get to know distinct characters.

Interests

I'm fond of animals so I enjoy doing research into the proper care in my free time. I also like swimming, hiking, spending a lot of time with my friends when I am not busy with anything important, listening to the songs which sound nice to me and trying different foods.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like listening to rock and pop music in general but I love all kinds of songs that sound nice to me :)

I once read " the street cat Bob " and I really liked it.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

On July 29, I had a chance to go to Graz/Austria. I worked in a physical therapy hospital as a volunteer for nearly a month. It was a great experience. Sometimes, I felt alone where I stayed because I had a devil of a time finding any English-speaking friends. During that time frame, I met someone via CS to have a conversation with in Graz. I also joined the regular CS meeting that I was invited to by that person I met. I had so much fun in that meeting :)

Moreover, I did paragliding twice in Ölüdeniz, Turkey. It was an amazing experience :)

Teach, Learn, Share

I want to learn about the life styles of different cultures.

I can teach you everything I'm good at and you need to learn about ;)

What I Can Share with Hosts
