About Me

CURRENT MISSION

life is short! live the moment!

ABOUT ME

I'm an easy-going, social girl likes talking, laughing and sharing so much :) I like travelling, meeting locals and exploring world cuisine.

I'm planning to quit my job and travel the world for one year starting january 2017. I'm looking for travel stories and experiences from friends on couchsurfing.

Edit: I finished my 16 months trip around the world and came back home. 👍😉😉

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I heard "hospitality club" first, then a friend from there told me about "Couchsurfing", I am a member since September 2009. I cannot host right now, but we can go out for a drink, walk around my city's historical places, and have dinner with amazing Turkish cuisine :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I like attending regular CS meetings and events. I had been to Sofia for the 2nd Turkish-Bulgarian CS meeting and met great friends. I visited Paris in June 2011, Vienna-Prague-Budapest in September 2011, Amsterdam-Berlin in May 2012, Paris in May 2014, Copenhagen-Malmo-Stockholm in July 2014, Las Vegas in 2015, and Canada in 2016 via CouchSurfing and met a lot of warm-hearted people.

On January 2017 I started my big trip. Destination Asia, Oceania, North and South America for 16 months. I have a lot of CS hosts and hangout friends. If they weren't, my trip won't be the same. Thanks and a big hug to everyone!! 😘😘

I have 2 negative references on all my trip but they were some kind of misunderstandings. Do not hesitate to meet or host me.
