About Me

ABOUT ME

Not an easy thing to describe yourself...I'm patient and hasty at the same time. I really like the idea of meeting and hanging out with people from anywhere around the world. That'll be fun to help them if possible.

PHILOSOPHY

I'm not one of those who just like to seize the day, cause I always have a plan although it may not work properly. Still, I've never had an intense philosophy, but I believe that you always have to be careful about your habits (any single one) because all of a sudden they start dominating your whole life, your thoughts, and everything. It could be something good, as well, something brings you the ultimate luck. So, everything is about getting used to, I think.
I don't have strong feelings for the idea that I can change the world in a way, however small things like a little smile to someone you don't know won't hurt anyone, and it always work for creating sort of an intimacy.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love travelling. But it’s always better to meet local people, have some good friends around the world and learn something from them.

Interests

I'm very interested in sports -especially in basketball, EFES PİLSEN- and trying to be a part of different social activities as much as possible. I used to hate theatre, but now it's kind of a passion for me.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Being a teacher is already amazing in itself. But teaching a total new language for 6-7 years old primary schoolers is more than amazing!*

Teach, Learn, Share

I'll be glad to help you to learn Turkish and/or practice it. I'm not an expert about where you should eat what, but it's better to find this out together. What's better is that I can learn about your culture in this way.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I live with my family with a lovely cat that is not so friendly (doesn’t let anyone touch her, and runs away).

———— We have an extra room with a couch for two.
Free WiFi :)

———— We would like to share our bathroom, kitchen including the food, and so on. The only thing is that you must use everything properly and leave all the rooms clean.

———— I definitely can offer a safe place to sleep. Both my family and I would like to help about transportaion and many more. I can also help you travel around if I’m not at work.

———— Nobody is allowed to smoke inside the apartment, however we have a recessed balcony. You may use it anytime just like my dad.

———— If you are scared of cats, don’t worry! She will never get close to you.
