Hi people. I am a 40 year old ELT. Iron Maiden fan. Atheist. A bit shy at first. Respect the house rules. Can't live without beer. Peace :D I live in Turkey but I am not Turkish. I am a Tatar, originally from Crimea.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Meet new people and get to know different cultures. I have been to several cities in EU and always stayed in hotels. I felt more like a stranger staying in hotels, isolated from local people. I don't want to feel "isolated" anymore. I wish to "blend in" ;)
