Hi!
I am a hilarious, sincere, respectful guy who likes to laugh, explore, meet people, engage in deep conversation, make music, make art, pray, read, and eat. I love Istanbul and am sort of trying to move here, but meanwhile I'm hanging out, working from my laptop, and learning Turkish. I love poetry, spirituality, mysticism, plant medicine, philosophy, and chess.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
