About Me

CURRENT MISSION Learn a lot ABOUT ME I am from Aydın, Turkey. Now I live in Flagstaff, USA. I am doing my MA and working as a GTA. I love traveling and learning new cultures. I am an introvert, but still talkative, curious, loving, helpful, self-confident and friendly girl. PHILOSOPHY The most important thing in this life is happiness for me. It is much more important than money, religion, some cultural or traditional values etc.
PLEASE READ: Hi all, I just wanted to add a friendly note to say that I am not here to flirt with anyone. I am here to learn new people, share traveling experiences, find hosts/travel-buddies and have fun, which does not necessarily include flirting. If you have such intentions, I am not the right person for you and Couchsurfing is not the best place for this. Also, if I don’t know you, do not send friend requests please.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Thanks to friends of mine. She told me about this web-site after I came to Italy and I decided to join. I think it's a wonderful idea to get socialized!

Interests

Listening to music, talking about my culture and learning different cultures, tasting different types of food & drinks, learning how to cook something from a different cuisine, discussions about language learning theories (I really enjoy it!), traveling, seeing new places, spending time in the nature ...

Music, Movies, and Books

Well, generally I like EDM and house music, but I am open to other types as well (apart from rap, R&B). My favourite movie is definitely Hachiko! It is a dog story that is narrated from a boy's point of view. I won't go into details you should definitely watch it! I really like the Pianist, Phantom of the Opera and some classical Turkish movies, too. To talk about books, I was moved by the Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini, Köprü (the Bridge) by Ayşe Kulin, the Other Boleyn Girl by Philippa Gregory.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Living in Turkey is pretty amazing I guess.

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach. Learn. Share. Let's do this yeah! I am open to learn new stuff like a culture, a cuisine, history, or traditional values and I really like talking about my own country and culture! This web-site is a very good chance to exchange some knowledge about different cultures.
