About Me

Hey! I’m Fatih — 26 years old, born in Ankara, now based in sunny İzmir, where the sea is close, the vibe is chill, and people treat weekdays like weekends (and weekends like small festivals).

I’m a dermatology resident doctor — so yes, I can tell you whether that weird spot on your skin is worth worrying about 😄. But when I’m not in the hospital, I’m all about traveling, backpacking, and meeting new people. Couchsurfing was a big part of my early travel adventures — I first used it when I was 19, a curious med student with zero money but infinite energy.

It’s been a while since then — life got serious (hello night shifts and endless exams), but now I’m back! I’ve decided to revive my backpacker soul during my breaks and see the world with fresh eyes and an old backpack.

I’m usually optimistic, sometimes a little too chill, and I love making people laugh — or at least trying. I’ve always enjoyed good conversation, bad puns, and spontaneous adventures (especially the kind that start with “let’s get lost a bit”).

As a kid I wanted to be an astronaut — instead I ended up exploring the galaxy of skin diseases. Close enough?

If you enjoy swapping stories, sharing a walk or a drink, and laughing at silly things, we’ll probably get along just fine. Let’s connect!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Travelling and meeting with new cultures new people.This is going to make me more social person and will help my self-improvment. Last summer, I used Couchsurfing at my first abroad experience in Bucharest and Budapest and I really liked this application. It is one of the best part of travelling, in my opinion.
