About Me

Currently USA

I am a traveller. Traveling is the most enjoyable way to be human, to exist, to say that I am here and a part of this life.

I hitchhike, trekking and camping on my travels. (I stay in my tent when I don't have internet communication) I like working in volunteer projects. This is my lifestyle.
I've been hitchhiking around the world with my backpack since 2015. I finished the South American continent in 1 year. I traveled to Central America and its islands again for a year. I visited 14 countries in the Western Europe in 30 days. Usa, Morocco, Armenia, Georgia…
I love collecting the flags of the places I visit, I love seeing all kinds of places, their history, people, very interesting and mysterious ones. I improvise on every land I set foot on.

Now I have been living in Muğla/Bodrum peninsula for 4 years…

2016 I had a motorcycle accident in Argentina. As a result of long treatments, I had lumbar spine surgery in 2019. Even so, I continued my travels. Now I am much stronger and better than before. I look forward to continuing my new journeys 🌎🌍🌏

I love being a dreamer because I achieve what I dream about. My biggest dream is to own nothing. ✌️
It's great to be a minimalist.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Uruguay was to meet former president Jose Mujica. He's stroked my hair. :) I had an amazing time at the farm.
I did paragliding in Turkey Ölüdeniz, Fethiye. It was amazing!
I finished by hitchhiking 5.000 km to Patagonia.
I went along the way like a Che Guevara 'Motorcycle Diary'. İn Bolivia's La Hugeara mountains, I walked 15 km and thirsty during the night. I finally got to the point where Che Guevara was killed...

Teach, Learn, Share

Keep traveling. Never stop discovering.
I would love to learn other languages and cultures and at the same time I would love to teach and share my knowledge with the other people.

What I Can Share with Hosts

The food cultures of different countries intrigue me.
I would love to share my experiences during my previous trip, my knowledge of the place I am from.
