I'm Ceren. I'm 24 years old. I'm a civil engineer, game developer and writer. I enjoy living my inner energy, curiosity and enthusiasm in every sense. I’m happy to embrace every experience that life offers by blending my eagerness to learn and my desire to teach. I love getting lost in the pages of literary magazines, opening the doors of new experiences and wandering in the magical world of books. Trekking, yoga and meditation are among my favorite hobbies. I strive to leave a positive impact on my surroundings by carrying my sensitivity to the subtleties of life at all times.

I try to stay up to date by following trends in the gaming industry and learning new technologies. I have a keen interest in gaining new knowledge and enjoy sharing it with others.

I'm working as a esc volunteer in Romania.

I'm currently immersing myself in Romanian culture, driven by a desire to better understand its rich history, traditions, and social dynamics. This journey allows me to connect more deeply with the people around me and appreciate the unique aspects of Romanian heritage. By exploring local customs, language, and cultural practices, I'm gaining valuable insights that enrich my personal and professional life, while also broadening my perspective on the world.

Driven by a passion for sustainability, I’m deeply aware of the harmful effects of concrete and advocate for more sustainable alternatives.

My commitment to social responsibility and volunteerism has led me to engage in short-term volunteering in North Macedonia, where I collaborated with fellow volunteers to organize activities and workshops for youth, addressing topics such as sustainability, active citizenship, bullying prevention, and career development.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on Couchsurfing because I believe in the power of connecting with people from around the world and sharing authentic, meaningful experiences. Couchsurfing allows me to immerse myself in cultures, meet interesting people, and explore new cities from a unique, insider perspective. It's more than just a way to find a house to stay—it's about building friendships, exchanging stories, and learning from others. Through Couchsurfing, I aim to create lasting memories and foster a sense of global community that transcends borders.

Music, Movies, and Books

I have a deep appreciation for soft rock music, with its smooth melodies and timeless appeal. Scorpions, The Beatles and Mariah Carey are some of my favorites, as their music has a way of capturing emotions and telling stories that resonate across generations. I love how soft rock blends the energy of rock with a more mellow, introspective vibe, making it perfect for both relaxing and reflecting.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One amazing thing I've done is volunteering in North Macedonia, where I helped organize and lead workshops for local youth on topics like sustainability, active citizenship, and bullying prevention. Working alongside volunteers from different countries, I had the opportunity to make a tangible impact on the community, empower young people with new skills, and promote positive change. This experience was incredibly rewarding and reinforced my belief in the importance of cross-cultural collaboration and giving back to society.

Teach, Learn, Share

I like sharing knowledge and experiences with others, whether it's through collaborative projects, volunteering, or storytelling. I believe in the power of community and the value of exchanging ideas to foster mutual growth. By sharing my experiences and insights, I hope to inspire and empower others to make positive changes in their own lives and communities.
