ABOUT ME

Hi! I'm Salih. I was born in Canakkale. Because of it i love historical places. Assos, Tenedos, Imbros, Alexandra Troia, Troia, Ida Mountain. All of those places make me ambitious about Homeros, Odysseia and Iliad. Then, Odysseia and Iliad changed my life and I fell in love with theater and storytelling. I studied English Language Teaching but I work as an actor and assistant director in Istanbul.
I like walking and thinking. Because of theese I seem like a slim cigarette.
I like cooking, swimming, writing something and reading poems.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to share feelings, happyness, thoughts, knowledge, dreams. I want to meet up new friends from different cultures.
