I'm Berat, I am 23 years old and I live in Hildesheim for now. (Generally I live in Istanbul, Karaman and also Göttingen )
I'm currently pursuing a computer engineering bachelor's degree at Karamanoğlu Mehmetbey University. (Karaman, one of the safest cities in Turkey against earthquakes)

I love to travel and my goal is to visit half the world before I turn 35.
I have visited 13 countries so far. I'm someone who can easily adapt to new environments. I enjoy communicating with people and making friends from different parts of the world.

As I am not fluent yet, I continue to improve my language skills, but I enjoy learning about other cultures by experiencing them. I find happiness in simple things and am very attached to my freedom. Having a healthy mindset, protecting human rights, integrity, respect and the environment is important to me. Additionally, mindfulness is another important aspect of my life. I always try to improve my knowledge and my curiosity for new things adds excitement and dynamism to my life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I enjoy getting to know new cultures and meeting new people. I'm here to increase my cultural interactions. I believe that the best way to understand a place's culture is by interacting with the people who live there. Additionally, I want to make friends in the countries I visit and complete my world map. My goal is to achieve these objectives here.
