I'm a Turkish woman in England for the moment :) I "full time" volunteer at the British Red Cross. (I can explain if you ask;)

I'm new here in Couchsurfing! I've been thinking about joining in this great world of people for a while and finally I'm here :)

I love seeing different places and things I haven't seen before. I'm easy going and I enjoy meeting new people. There're so many things we can teach each other and learn from each other. Or sometimes we just enjoy chatting! P.S I'd love doing it while we're having tea:)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It's just a great idea meeting new people while seeing new places. It's even better and more exciting because you actually don't know the host/surfer so it's always a bit of surprise. It's also good for the budget that you don't worry about your stay. Last, I'm obsessed with "first times" and I'm sure we'll be doing/seeing/talking about/experiencing at least something for the first time!

Music, Movies, and Books

Oh they're difficult to list.

I truly enjoy most kind of music. I'm planning to create a playlist of songs from all people I meet and people from different countries. You're more than welcome to contribute:)

I usually forget names of books and movies. The movie "Dogville" was very interesting and weird enough to remember. Also movie: One flew over the Cuckoo's nest. I liked Forest Gump too.
I like Paulo Coelho's books in general. I like learning from the books and also more into the books which have fast moving stories.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I'm doing an EVS in England! Ask me and I'll tell you more! ;)
I did abseiling and kinda zip-lining as well but looking for more adventures stuff!

Teach, Learn, Share

I can obviously teach you Turkish (about Turkey and the culture as well) if you're interested at all. There are a few phrases I think you'll find interesting.
I can teach some origami. I also know how to balloon twist and can make a dog, flower and a few more. We can talk about what personality type you are (let me know before I'll prepare a bit;) and so on..

I'm into board games and different card games so I'd love to learn new ones. I'd like to try yoga and if you know any suggestion/figure, I could start with you:)

We can share all the stuff above and more. Oh and let's not forget about food. You will not say that I'm a good eater but I enjoy good food. We can cook together and try something if we have the time.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Whatever you ask I know. My culture, my thoughts about volunteering, I'll share my food when I cook... I'll share a good time.
