About Me

Hello, I am new to Serbia, I came to Novi Sad for a year-long project. I want to meet new people, experience different cultures and gain new experiences. It is important for me to expand my social circle and make new friends. I enjoy traveling and learning about different lifestyles.

I am a respectful, compassionate and understanding person who pays attention to people's sensitivities. Being a good listener is also something I really value.

I have been active in civil society for many years, both professionally and as a volunteer. I focus on creating social impact, especially through projects supporting women and children in need.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I use Couchsurfing to meet new people and have multicultural experiences. It is important for me to share experiences mutually. I also want to expand my social circle and gain different perspectives because every person has a unique story.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

*Quitting my job and starting my second university to pursue my dream career marked the beginning of the biggest changes in my life. I’m curious about the starting points of big changes in other people’s lives as well.

*I worked professionally in an earthquake affected area for six months and lived in both tents and containers to support people affected by the disaster.

Teach, Learn, Share

*I’m open to learning, teaching, and sharing my experiences. Drawing inspiration from different cultures and perspectives is important for my personal growth.
*I can share my knowledge and experience in humanitarian aid, guide you around Novi Sad, teach you how to cook, and learn new things from you.
*I can teach you Turkish and Kurdish if you want :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am respectful and considerate towards my hosts. I enjoy cultural exchange—sharing my own experiences and learning about their way of life. I’m a good conversationalist, love cooking, and don’t hesitate to help around the house. I communicate easily, value genuine connections, and I’m usually the fun, humorous person who lightens up the atmosphere.
