Hey Guys!
I am Figen ;)
My life has gone between two neighbors, Bulgaria and Turkey. Bulgaria is the country where I was born but I grew up in Turkey.
I'm an architecture student at Yıldız Technical University, in Istanbul. Currently I'm an exchange student at Wroclaw University of Technology, in Poland.
By the way I'm interested in art. I have been painting and drawing since I was born. ;) And also I'm playing piano. I'm interested in dance. I know a little cha-cha, for now basic steps.
In Bursa I get used to work as a voluntary tourist guide in the young years. This work open the way to meet new people and share cultures. It's the best way of learn the cities.

My plan is having a great trip in Europe with the non-touristic destinatons!!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to make friends all around the world, learn different cultures and make new experiences.

Interests

My childhood spent by drawing pictures. I really love this due to it's my emotions' reflection (sometime I feel like exposing myself :/ ). I have realistic paintings, surrealistic drawings and also some graffities which are more amateur cause of starting it recently.
I love going theaters, musicals. There is a magnigficent atmosphere better than the cinemas.
I play piano, I took piano lessons at high school. Now I still try to develop myself.
I'm nested with sports until starting the second year of Architecture Department. Architecture takes my so much time. It's a little bit horrible but creating new things is a great sense! It's a very satisfactory job! - By the way great part of art -
I'm really interested in TATTOO's. I'd like to be an tattoo artist. It looks very attractive in my opinion. I'm searching a significant moment for my significant tattoo. Let's see, I'm really wondering it! Maybe I could find that moment while traveling.
What am I telling about? Yeah, sports. I was a swimmer in Bosch sports club when I was child. Still I swim like a frog :P I am the princess of seas, oceans ;)
And also I ski. It's one of the most enjoyable sport, in my view.
Last year I joined the latin dance classes at university. In my opinion cha-cha is more enjoyable than the others.
I love traveling cause of it open the way to explore and learn new things about history, art, architecture, culture, and male new friends all around the world. In addition, I prefer to visit non-touristic places due to telling us the real culture. It's very exciting!! Isn't it ;)

Music, Movies, and Books

La Yegros is a really enjoyable band from Buenos Aires. The singer has a adorable characteristic voice. I love their Iluminada Album.
Noir Desir is a French dark rock band. The singer's (Bertrand Cantat) has a spectacular performance in "Des Armes" song. But the sweetest song is "Le vent nous Portera". This song has a keen effect on me, I always sadden me. This is the reason of why I adore this song.

Midnight in Paris, Memento, Confessions of a Dangerous Mind...

I usually read classics, Dostoyevski, Gogol, Tolstoy, Emile Zola, Steinbeck...

TV Series, in fact I don't like watching series because I cannot control myself against it's escapist story, How I Met Your Mother, Sherlock, Dexter, South Park, The Simpsons
