Hi, I am Ahmet Cem from İzmir, Turkey. I am a lawyer with passion towards nature and interests towards sciences.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

Well, I want to meet new people while practicing langauge. I lived my whole life except university in İzmir, so believe I can share my knowledge about İzmir with foreigners visiting İzmir. Moreover I travelled quite a much inside Turkey and read about Turkey, therefore I can help with any questions on Turkey.

Musik, Filme und Bücher

As a single piece of music Vivaldi's Winter would be my favorite, though in the context of genres I like classical western music and leftist music(I am not sure if this is a genre though).
On movies I can name Das Leben der Anderen as my favorite movie. But I have a special interest for contemporary korean and classical japanese cinema.
I am reading mostly non-fiction currently, so I like any book with sound judgement. Social Origins of Dictatorship and Democracy is among my favorite books. As of fiction, I prefer Turkish ones. Because I feel like something lost in translation.

Lehren, lernen, teilen

Firstly, I am a lawyer. I can help with any questions on law. Second, I read a lot on social sciences. I can share my ideas on the improvement of society. I am also willing to know what others think of society. Especially I am curious about what and why non-Turkish people think about their country.
