Hey I'm Otto! I was born in Turkey and I have lived in the states since I was 5. Since I constantly visited my extended family in Turkey every year, this gave me an opportunity to understand contrasting cultures at an early age, which i appreciate dearly. I like to take photos, climb, be outdoors and kick it and talk about life! Love doing crazy and wild stuff in the cities and taking long treks in the mountains or countryside. I am also a big advocate of ecocentrism and alternative lifestyles . I really enjoy meeting new people and traveler's alike and sharing all of our funny, scary and crazy adventures with one another. I also play piano and dabble in some other stringed instruments. Also chances are that if you stay with me then we are probably going to be doing something active and outdoors unless you're super tired from traveling and just want to kick back and listen to some music. I'm super easygoing and will never say no to a wild adventure or tame night spent on the couch. Couchsurfing is a wonderful thing that brings people from all different cultures and ethnicities together so can't wait to meet and learn from you! Cheerios
