IMPORTANT UPDATE ON PROFILE
Hi we are Sezin and Sibel. We are mother and daughter whom had the privilege to meet new people and host them in our house because of CS. It has been 7 years since we started and we have made many friends we still see and keep in touch time to time. We would like to thank again to all our visitor friends and host friends around the world for the things we shared.

Both of our lives changed a lot since Sezin is in 3rd year of her uni, and Sibel is retired.

This profile is now being used by Sezin (21) for her travels so the rest of the profile will be adjusted accordingly. Dont be confused because of the references may reference the name Sibel more.

SEZIN
Hello i am Sezin and i am a 21 year old biology student. I always loved travelling with local people of the area to experience the city fully, and when we started CS the local people of the world came to our door:) I am always unbelievably grateful for my experiences with people from CS. It has opened my mind and world from such a young age and i met great role models.

MY FAVORITES
I love cooking. Mentioning Anthony Bourdain might be boring but he has changed my view of food and culture. I love to cook from different cultures and also love sharing recipes that i have developed myself!:)
I have endless love for nature and animals. I love hiking in the nature and i walk dogs for people in my neighbourhood.
I love art and fashion. I love learning about it and i love predicting trends. I like all things crafty, drawing, photography and videography. Especially street art! I love making stickers and graffiti.

PERSONALITY

I am a vibrant and empathetic person, drawn to personal growth and living life fully. I’m driven to connect with others and get inspired by people.I have a curious nature. I try to keep my childlike wonder and taste many foods, visit many places and have many exciting days as i can. I love to learn from my interactions with the world.

We are unfortunately not available for hosting now with my mother.
I am planning a Japan trip around April this year 2025. If you have any friends or recommendations from the area please let me know! Thank you:)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love travelling in the first place.When i tried couchsurfing for the first time i really understood how important knowing a local is.You have a chance to get to know a whole culture,and a whole new person of course.I also love hosting people because i love to share my company and knowledge with travellers.We have made a lot of international friends and some of them are like our family.I find cs really meaningful and i love to make new friends from all around the world:)
