I'm Zeynep. I live in Turkey. Age 21.My place is Ankara. But now I live in Kastamonu with my family. I'm here for five months. I'm a university student. I'm studying at a private university. My field is psychology. I like traveling, and I also like to meet different people, to recognize different cultures, to communicate with people. It's important for me.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like to go abroad. And of course I do not have as much money as every student. Everyone who loves traveling knows that they do not want to pay for expensive hotels. I think so. Because of this, people who are on their way to Turkey can stay in my house and I can stay in the house of somebody and know our cultures.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love Turkish pop music. In addition, our culture is unique to -TURKU-. I do not listen much to foreign music. But there are a few groups I like. Like Pink Flyord, The Beatles. I also do not read many books because of the intensity of my school. But I am very busy reading time. The film is also my favorite film one flew over the cuckoo's nest.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I went to Italy at a very young age. I was involved in a project (comenius) by a high school teacher. In the content of the project, students from 5 different countries will meet in certain countries and prepare a theater about their own culture. Our teacher told us to join us with a few friends and we joined this great adventure. We went to Italy to do our show. It was really beautiful. I stayed at an Italian family home. I have very nice friendships. And we still see.

What I Can Share with Hosts

First of all a lady. But more importantly, I am a Muslim woman. That's why I have to be a lady in people. It's important for me to be a family. A clean human being is pretty clean in my own home. That's why I want to stay in a clean place. I also do not have pets in my house and I do not want to be a cat especially when I go. Because I'm so scared of the cat.

Countries I’ve Visited
