Hello Dear Journey Lovers,

My name’ s İlkyaz from Turkey. Recently, I’ m preparing the exams to do a PhD at the abroad and trying to improve my English skills.

I have lived in Konya which is the city of Mevlana Celaleddin-i Rumi who is famous in the world as a sufi philosopher and tasawwuf poet. I have lived in UK, London, for 4 months thanks to Erasmus programme. However right now, I'm living with my friend in Aksaray for a couple months.

I like to learn about everything, such as historical & cultural things, ways of improving about personal evaluation. And I really love travelling, outdoor activities, taking photo, hiking, cooking and reading on biology, psychology, history, scientific & travelling magazine.
And I really enjoy speaking about the biology, living things like animals, flowers and your cultural things like feast, foods, important persons, popular places to visit.

I’ m also looking forward to meeting many new and interesting people to learn different cultures from all over the world!

I hope, our roads intersect one day.

Best regards,
İlkyaz

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to dive into the culture and learn how people live, how they think.

It would be a great opportunity, if I can meet very interesting people while travelling and I would like to make new friends who I can continue to keep in touch with.
