About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to survive and enjoy life

ABOUT ME

Been in Istanbul for 4 years and absolutely love it even though have only scratched the surface so far.Happy to share what I know and find out about new people.

PHILOSOPHY

Enjoy the small stuff. THere are no wrong choices
( well maybe a few) only different ones.

No experience is ever wasted- not sure this constitutes a philosophy but I do believe it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I pick people quite carefully. I love the idea of cs but don't want it to become a routine and lose the quality of the experience by having 2 million "friends" !

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have had visitors to stay and have met others for a drink. I have couchsurfed in USA,Amsterdam and Spain.

Interests

travel and walking. This is the third country I have lived in over the last 6 years. Like anything a bit arty and eating, drinking and talking with interesting people.

  • dancing
  • picnic
  • walking
  • drinking
  • traveling

Music, Movies, and Books

Foreign films, film noir, old movies. World music, reggae and ska, opera. Currently obsessively playing Elbow.
Read practically anything I can get my hands on.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

overnight picnic on Maldivian Island with local friends
catching sharks and dancing under the stars.
