I was born in Balikesir which is a small city in Turkey. I am 20 years old.
I moved to Istanbul in 2014 and now I'm studying law in Koc University.
I regret to say that, I live in dormitory in Istanbul which means I can't have you as guests. But if you come to Istanbul any time of year -except summer- I would like to accompany you when you discover Istanbul. :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I travelled 8 countries and totally 12 cities in this summer, by bus. I couldn't stay any settled accomodation and it was a little tough for us to sleep in bus for two weeks. But I know that, especially in popular cities, hotel prices could be very high for travellers. For instance, in Bodrum both city life and accomodation is so expensive , if I can help travellers and meet new people; I would be very happy!
On the other hand, this situation is valid for me too when I'm travelling. I want to meet new people, make new friends from different cultures and discover authentic aspects of their cities. :)

Interests

I love travelling when I find a chance. I hope, I will be a real traveller someday. :)

I'm interested in literature, especially poems, I'm trying to analize them and find myself in verses.
My favorite authors are Oguz Atay, Sadik, Tezer Ozlu, Gabriel Garcia Marquez, Fernando Pessoa and Franz Kafka.
My favorite poets are Turgut Uyar,Edip Cansever, Nazim Hikmet, Didem Madak, Ahmet Telli, Federico Garcia Lorca and Furug Ferruhzad.

Music, Movies, and Books

I always like to listen music, but the type of this music can change according to my mood. So, I cannot determine a specific category; however I don't prefer listen heavy metal or pop music, generally.
My favorite movies are The Fall, Mary and Max, Kill Bill, Star Wars, The Painting, Everything is Illuminated.
I couldn't determine my favorite books, there are so many.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I had lived in Egypt for 6 meeks for a volunteer project. It was an amazing experience for me to traver Egypt's cities and live in their culture closely.

As I mentioned above, I really want to accompany my guests to discover the city and spend time with them.
