Hello,

It is hard to tell about one's self. I don't want to refer directly to my occupation or education. I like colours and animals, plants, to work with soil a lot. Recently I am dealing with the problematic of keeping fate and hope in this degrading ecology and morale atmosphere. Also in Turkey, things are getting realy troublesome.

I studied urban planning and sociology and worked in different areas. Lastly, I worked for 5 years on ecology, rural development, urban agriculture in a municipality. I recently quit my job. I was very bored and upset about Ankara's city life and working in a 8 am-5 pm office.

I spent the summer in a permaculture farm in Turkey with my husband. And now we are travelling to Thailand and India, mainly for training yoga, thai massage, meditation/vippasana and of course discovering culture, flora, arts & architecture, meeting people and eating :)

I want to explain the reason why I never hosted anyone and why I am not offering my house to anyone. Many years ago while I was still living eith my parents, I have offered my house here with another account, but no one showed up, I guess because it was far away :) And then I always lived in very crowded houses. And now we don't have a house as my partner and I quit our jobs and we are travelling and volunteering.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I am about to travel to Thailand and India with my partner for 5 months. I hope to meet nice hosts so to a have a more friendly way of lodging and to keep our travel budget also.
