I was born in a small Turkish village in Bulgaria and moved to Turkey when I was 7.
I lived in Istanbul, studied in the capital, Ankara, taught in Izmir at a university for 8 years, also lived in Rize, not far from Georgia in the Northeast, then lived and taught in Kuwait for 6 years at a university there, then back to Turkey.

I like breathing exercises, walking, good conversation, literature, poetry, yoga, Chigong, cold showers, table tennis.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing is amazing for meeting lots of new people and for having a rather authentic experience of the place people visit.

I used Couchsurfing many years ago back in Turkey, that account is lost so he and Gülşah started this account from scratch.

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

I can teach English, I have conversational level German and Bulgarian and can get by in Arabic. I have been practicing yoga and chigong for the last eight years and I would enjoy sharing those experiences, theoretically or by practicing together.

I am kind of learned and interested in astrology so you can have fun conversations about it together. We can go to social events together. We can cook and watch a movie on the projector.
