CURRENT MISSION

Visit ALL the places! Meet ALL the people! ;)

ABOUT ME

I'm kind, generous, and silly. I'm shy but very friendly. I love meeting new people and exchanging stories, ideas, and dreams. I spend a lot of time with my head in the clouds!

PHILOSOPHY

There are no guarantees in life, so you need to take some chances and not allow life to pass you by. A lot of my friends and family think I'm crazy for not "settling down" and "getting a real job" but I think the world is too big to stay in one place forever. Money doesn't matter to me, so I'm happy to be a volunteer English teacher, as long as I have enough money to eat and travel a little, I couldn't care less about my clothes or what type of phone I have.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have stayed with two hosts and both were wonderful. I think couch surfing is a great way to meet some of the most open, generous, and interesting people in a new place.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

So far I've stayed with two hosts, one in Georgia and one in Turkey, but both were Turkish. They were happy to show my friend and I around their cities and share with us some interesting cultural and historical points and recommend/cook great food. I love meeting people in this way.
