COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE I participated in gatherings and events in different cities. Mostly in Istanbul and in Helsinki (the best CS crowd ever!). I also visited weekly meetings in Denmark and in Estonia. Surfed in Finland, Germany, Denmark, Greece. Hosted several Couchsurfers.

Movies: I am a fan of independent wold cinema. I enjoy hearing different languages and seeing different landscapes through movies that inspire my travel interests. And I suck at Hollywood knowledge. Don't get surprised if I don't know who is the actor of James Bond. Music: Oh where to start? Even though I introduce myself as a metal music admirer, I listen pretty much to all kinds of music. Always hungry for new and different tastes. Here are some of my heroes: Jean Sibelius, Scorpions, Tim Buckley, Archive, Dio, Skid Row, Pink Floyd, The Doors, Saturnus, Agalloch, Empyrium, Tenhi, Eddie Vedder, Stratovarius, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Blackmore's Night, Ensiferum, Draconian, Darkseed, Turmion Kätilöt, Madrugada, Tiamat, Omnia, Debussy, The National... Books (Writers): Tove Jansson, George Orwell, Goethe, Oscar Wilde, Arthur Rimbaud, J. D. Salinger, Ferit Edgü, Can Dündar, Tevfik Fikret, Montaigne, Sartre...
