ABOUT ME

Hello Dear CS members !
My name is Serdar or Szerdi

''Somewhere along the way in life I gave up a sedentary lifestyle and wanted to hit the road, always moving somewhere new, seeking new experiences.'' This sentence explains a lot about my lifestyle nowadays.

I like travelling so much but that doesn't mean I go somewhere and stay there in a hotel or something like that, as a Couchsurfer i am sure you know what I mean. I like to meet locals and learn as much as i can from them about their culture, norms, values and lifestyle...

''I cannot explain exactly what makes me move except to say that I have this wanderlust inside of me that drives me on, to feel the earth spin beneath my feet, to wake up and see a new horizon, feel a fresh breeze against my face, to be a stranger in a strange land. ''
It always makes me happy to be the stranger in new places..

I have studied Political Science and Public Administration for 5 years including English preparation class..
Graduated in 2013
I did my Erasmus in Budapest in 2012 ( I can say , the best time of my life )
Erasmus has changed my lifestyle and life perspective a lot. Thanks to that i really found myself and after meeting almost 300 exchange students from all around the world i got a new perspective of life.

I was a footballer and playing professionally when i was 17 18 and then i had to move to another city because of my father's job.. After that I needed to give up playing football and get ready for the exam to go to a University.

I don't know when i am going to stop living like this and go for a sedentary lifestyle. But for now i am really enjoying living like this. I need to learn MORE AND MORE..

Hope to see you somewhere along the way and share something together.

PHILOSOPHY

If one can do it, I can do it. If no one can do it, I must do it :)
