I am an exchange architecture student at UdK Berlin. I lived in Istanbul before moving here. I am new here in CS but I learned a lot from my friends who used this amazing app. I only had this chance to use it now because I am currently doing an Erasmus year in Berlin and traveling across Europe.

Since I am an architecture nerd and city-enthusiast traveler; I am writing a journal during my travels. I want to capture all kinds of urban narratives 🤩 I am a pretty easy-going person that wants to have a taste of the beautiful places that I go to and meet new people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am on a long journey of some Europe cities with the prior objective of writing a travel journal. Starting from Paris, my path will be followed by Brussels, Amsterdam, Porto, Lisbon, Barcelona, Milan and Torino. I travel by myself that is why I would like to stay with a surfer that I can get along with and share this experience😌
And one day when I settle down in a place I would really like to welcome host other CSs in my place.

Music, Movies, and Books

I play the clarinet since I studied in conservatory back in high school. If there is a remedy for any unpleasant situation, it is dancing for me. I am mostly into the music that I can dance to 🤸🏽 Other than that, I got inspired by most of the alternative artists of past decades and now. But when my soul is healed by contemporary wind-instrumental music and South-American calming tunes. Other than that I have been a part of the choir for 7 years which means I also like to sing :)

I try to discover European and Middle Eastern cinematography recently and clear my mind of the mainstream American productions that I have been exposed to for a long time in my childhood.

Past few years I found myself reading periodical publications and philosophy books about architectural practices.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I spent my 3 months of summer traveling across the southern coastline of Turkey with a backpack.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you a lot about Turkish cuisine and tell you a lot about that culture that is formed in the middle of Asia and Europe. Since I am a great storyteller, I can share many stories that you would love ☺️ Also I am a linguistics and etymology nerd so we can exchange verbal context.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am a good cook who loves to try other cuisines. We can cook delightful food and have a lot of laughter while eating them😋 Other than that, if you would like to show me around the city and share good moments I would be so happy to do so.
