Hi, I’m Buse

📍Istanbul at heart, currently living in Gdańsk, Poland.

My motto is “to travel is to live.” I mostly travel solo and enjoy meeting both locals and travelers to exchange stories, experiences, and cultures along the way.

I believe diversity is a true richness, and that we do not all have to agree on a single truth. That is why I am not open to meeting anyone who holds segregationist, fascist, or discriminatory views toward any race, ethnicity, religion, or sexual orientation. After all, who are we to judge, kindness and respect should not be optional.

And just to be clear: CS is not a dating app.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

The world is much bigger than what we see or were taught. I want to explore more of it and share how it looks through my eyes.
