I'm a Zaza, Kurdish (Alevi), born in Turkey, raised in the Netherlands and now living in Amsterdam.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because I love traveling, meeting new faces and souls, and experiencing what has to reveal to me!

Interests

I feel passion for a lot of things: books, films, wine, conversation, dance, arts, discussion, love, kindness, loving kindness, compassion, bowling, traveling, traveling alone, wandering the streets, food and cooking, contemplating, animated movies.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music can be a revelation, helping to acquire a better understanding of the soul. Love for old Alevi songs.
I wish I could write like these authors: Carlos Castaneda, Ivan Gontsjarov. And express like these poets and mystics: Shams Tebrizi and Rumi. And make movies like these: Hayao Miyazaki, Quentin Tarantino.
