About Me

I love traveling and I have a strong desire to connect with people I meet during my journeys and stay in constant touch with them. As I plan to travel to all countries in the world, I want to meet and connect with many people, learn from them, and gather information. Each person represents a new experience, and I highly value every individual I encounter. I want to emphasize that I respect people from all walks of life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I use this app to meet new people, establish fresh friendships, and actively practice the languages I know. I believe that every person adds a new experience to my life. Embracing diversity and cultural exchange, I'm eager to learn from others and create meaningful connections with people from all around the world.

Interests

To host travelers and genuinely create cultural connections. Hospitality should be more than just providing accommodation; it should be about making new friends and forming meaningful connections. It's truly rewarding to experience something similar to the Erasmus program in Europe, right in the comfort of your own home.

Music, Movies, and Books

I enjoy listening to all kinds of music, but I tend to choose classical music when I want to relax. Additionally, I prefer to listen to music based on the energy of the moment. For example, lately, I've been listening to both Russian classical music and Russian rap, while also enjoying various global genres. Watching movies isn't my top preference; I'm more into series. My favorite book is Fyodor Dostoevsky's 'Crime and Punishment'.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Once, I took a spontaneous trip without making any plans. I took a night flight from Trabzon to Istanbul and from there, I randomly searched for a ticket and ended up flying to Kosovo. Traveling without a plan can be chaotic, but it leaves behind indescribable feelings and experiences that are truly unforgettable.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can engage in conversations with new people on various topics and share my knowledge with them. I can provide information to newcomers to Turkey about the legal system and the general sociological structure of the country. Additionally, I would love to talk about my experiences and travels. Every encounter is an opportunity to learn and grow, and I'm excited to connect with people from diverse backgrounds and cultures.

What I Can Share with Hosts

To spend time with my guests and, if possible, mutually share some of our cultural values.
