I’m Enise 🦋 I’m doing master’s in gender studies after a gap year

When it comes to discovering a new city, I prefer walking for a looong time. I care about having meaningful connections, conversations, sharing the moment together and learning from each other.

I love street photography. Here is my portfolio:

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I don’t want to just visit the must-see places in a city. I want to experience the daily lives of locals, being a part of the city & culture, feeling the sense of community with like-minded people on CS, who are also passionate about exploring, sharing, exchanging ideas and having good time together ✨
