Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I LOVE traveling and meeting with people. That's why I participated CS. I really can't understand those who are not traveling. Somebody should tell them what they are missing! The world is absolutely mind blowing.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have never hosted or been hosted by anybody yet, but am hoping to do some CS this summer. On the contrary, I am an active member of Istanbul CS community participating various events.

Interests

Languages, photography, swimming, characteristic structures, live music.

I am curious about history, world civilizations, and their interactions among themselves, and influences over others.
