I am interested in making friends from different cultural/national background. As well as to learn the culture that they are living with by seeing it directly. Staying at hostes's houses, I guess, would be one of the ways to realize that. I would like them to stay over my place too, except that I am studying abroad now and I live in gov't dorm which makes it seem very impossible. But I will offer my service if one of you happen to be in Izmir, Turkey. I would give you a tour to places that I guarantee its best.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

This is a place where almost all people are trustworthy, at least that's what I heard from people who have tried it.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Having been away from home for 3 years straight. I don't know if it is amazing at all. But I think it requires courage to be able to stand it, away from family for that long.

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach: I don't know if I have the capacity to teach
Learn: But I do want to learn
Share: I like sharing. Perhaps little souvanir from my country is the affordable thing to share for now. But information, culture, and experience - I am in to either share it or listen to it.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Culture - mostly sharing information about things that both of us don't know, such as things that related to our nationality (the culture that we embrace). Some unique souvenir from either Indonesia or Turkey - as I live in Turkey now.
