ABOUT ME

''You can be anything you want to be. Just turn yourself into anything you think that you could ever be.''

PHILOSOPHY

with all my courtesy to the One who created me 'sometimes wish I'd never been born at all' would summarize my aspect of view for life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Some friends and colleagues around me were CSing this is how I realized what's missing in my life recently. Regarding to my prior experiences of the pleasure I get from traveling and attraction to cultural diversity, CouchSurfing is gonna hopefully fill the gap by giving me the chance to meet with interesting people and enjoy every moment of my journeys.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

A couple of times came across CSing people with my friend, listened their interesting stories and had some drink in Istanbul. Before moving to Spain, decided to be a part of this community. During my stay in Spain and Germany I've met, hosted, joined to meetings and surfed on my travels.

Interests

swimming(especially in the sea with locals of the sea and in deep waters), blitz-trips, mountains (camping and hiking in the mountains, snowbarding on the mountains, watching stars in the mountains), coffee, cooking and tasting different cuisines, postcards, maps (particularly old ones)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I am not awestruck by anything worths to mention. Imho, such experiences listed on this part are just relative and perceptive.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach and cook from a wide range of world cuisine. And any simple thing you wanna learn (from me) feel free to ask whatsoever. If you are coming from a country where mango grows and delicious, could you bring me a raw one which may get ripen during your journey :) It's not a request for a bribe but your chance to be hosted would definitely gets higher. I just can't say no to a delicious juicy mango.
