About Me

I like singing and dancing, reading books, writing.
I live by music. I like many genres. Rock, classical, jazz, alternative, experimental, punk, new age,...
I'm a caring person. I care for people with disadvantages, people suffering from emotional pain and I care for animals.
I like diving, wind-surfing and skiing. I'd like to learn to snowboard and wave-surf too.
I'm interested in martial arts but I don't know any.
I just bought a classical guitar, I used to play when I was 14, I hope to play again.
I know to read and write musical notes, I'm working on my own compositions.
I love to meet new people. I sometimes feel insecure in new environments though.
I like working as a performer, as a dancer but there aren't a lot of job opportunities in Turkey in this area.
I love singing. I hope to sing throughout my life.
I write scribbles, I like to read them. It's such a relief to be able to write what I'm feeling sometimes, seeing them in form of words.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've just graduated. I've been living in İstanbul for several years now. I want to travel and see other countries, other lives, other worlds. I want to get to know different people's visions, dreams, meaning they attribute to living. I want to make various memories. Widen my horizons. Challenge myself. Contribute to, share with and care for people. I want to prove to myself once again that I know nothing compared to what there is to know. I want to be surprised, discover, witness.
I want to do all these before I start settling down and I want to decide my terms of settlement in light of this new information I plan to gather from around the world. I want to share my experiences to encourage more people to do what they've been dreaming to do.
