I’m from Istanbul and I enjoy traveling in a way that allows me to connect with local people and cultures. During my Erasmus experience, I had the chance to explore different countries and realized that the most meaningful memories come from sharing everyday life with locals, not just visiting tourist attractions.

Now, I prefer spending my holidays meeting people, exchanging stories, and discovering cities from a local perspective. I’m open-minded, respectful, and always happy to learn about new cultures, languages, and ways of life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe that the heart of a city is not found in tourist attractions or places marked one by one on a map. It lives where local people spend their time, where they meet, sit, talk, and share everyday life.

Through Couchsurfing, I want to experience cities from this genuine perspective, connect with locals, and understand places through real human interactions rather than just sightseeing.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I took part in an Erasmus exchange program, which allowed me to live in a different country, adapt to a new culture, and travel across Europe on my own, later published as an academic article

Teach, Learn, Share

I can share insights about Turkish culture and daily life in Istanbul, as well as my Erasmus and travel experiences. I enjoy meaningful conversations about culture, society, and personal growth, and I’m always open to learning new languages, perspectives, and local habits from the people I meet.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can offer good company, respectful and tidy behavior, and genuine interest in my host’s culture and daily life. I’m happy to share stories, cook or order food together, help with small daily tasks if needed, and exchange experiences in a friendly and relaxed way.
