I'm a Turkish teacher-was born in Germany tough, 40, who works in public school in Istanbul now, so I love being among new learners, education centers, courses etc.

One way I use much to envisage my students' visions is to do erasmus things, partnering with different schools around EU to colloborate on global schooling issues. For this reason, I'm really keen on travelling, meeting new colleagues, discovering and exchanging cultural things, especially observing different traditions.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Having soul of a typical Mediterraen people, I always prefer a sincere chat around a coffe table to staying in a cold hotel myself.

Interests

Well, as a backpack traveller, I'm quite interested in discovering new places, cultures and traditions. Besides, I'm really into sports and do running and freediving, so I feel great in outdoors especially at places near any oceans, to fullfill my ambitions, I try to travel a lot driving around my home country Turkey and flying to countries away at the same time.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like lounge music besides some chiling melodies.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Been in a very cold midnight in the very deep part of a dark forest in one of my trips in Poland. I found some opportunities diving around great places of Mediterraen, Black and Aegan Sea and in the south of Italy.

Teach, Learn, Share

Altough my profession is teaching, I feel myself as a new learner motivating my own life by discovering new things around, so being an openminded teacher is what describes me best I suppose.
