Hello! I am Ekin from Turkey. Just got my BA degree in Psychology. I am 24 years old. I am doing a double-major, so still a student at Middle East Technical University, department of philosophy. I will graduate from philosophy next summer.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am going to spend my summer in Europe before I will start my master's. I have been saving money for vacations for a long time, to experience what is going on across borders. Unfortunately, saving money in Turkey as a student can be hard sometimes.
I am on CouchSurfing to meet and be friends with people. I am looking forward to meet and visit you!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I once lived with four cats (one mother and three babies) in a student dorm alone. It was a success story for me, finding myself alone with 3 newborns and a mother cat, and somehow managed to live without problems, while expecting a lot. I am good at taking care of a house. Also, I love cooking. Besides traditional Turkish meals, I like working with Japanese cuisine.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can bring snacks and food from Turkey. Also, I like playing with cards, I would be happy to teach and play.
