About Me

In a “de jure” meaning, I am a human rights lawyer working for the civil space in Azerbaijan. In “de facto” contextual meaning, I am a dedicated and thoughtful world citizen willing to have a joyful and life 😎🥰

I love laughing, making jokes (if you are a shy person or I get shy in front of you, don’t expect that🤪), and trying new stuff.

Recently, I asked myself - what made me happy the last month? And I barely found an answer (sad story👉🏻👈🏻). Since then, I prioritize my happiness, so being happy is what makes me who I am :) Carpe Diem! 😎

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love meeting different people. Especially those who can listen to me and I can relate to. I love difference and diversity in the life. Not seeing any meaning in visiting museums or plain sightseeing of different European cities.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

To go to concert. Yes, no joke. This was one of the best experiences in my life lol. And, living in 5 countries. And, doing lots of solo traveling. And, helping my community quite much, providing legal aid to over thousands, managing 100k follower page. IDK else, going to a naked pool, staying with 5 men in one house in unnamed Turkish town, going to a hat party that turned into a “another thing” party at the end, slept at beach just because missed a train, got spit on my face by random man in D.C, fell off from the mountain, cooked delicious food, smiled, and more to go.

And a new one: got accepted to Harvard, Cambridge, Oxford, Berkeley, NYU this year 😌 - yeah, i’m a nerdish dervish

Being creative all theee time. Not like drawing, I just love making events and pursuing initiatives 😎

Teach, Learn, Share

I’m quite a flexible person. Can adjust to your lifestyle and character. Sometimes I care about things more than necessary, but it doesn’t happen often :) I love if you’re proactive and initiative-taker. I love adventure ! 😎 Teach me whatever you know, show me whatever you can do. Why I even used to that much “me” here? Auch.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Some legal knowledge, international opportunities, a piece of information on Eastern culture, Caucasus...

Feel free to tell me about anything in your life. I can give you hundreds of perspectives about them :)
