Hello lovely person whoever reading this at the moment. Welcome to my profile, My name is Utku, born in 1997. I am a university student now, I am studying politics. It includes a lot of history and philosophy, which are my interests. I believe in lifelong learning, that's why I've been traveling since 2014. I am a traveler on my school breaks but a hardworking student in school times. I've participated in couple of exchange programmes, I did an Erasmus exchange in Finland and I saw sooo many incredible things so far! I am also volunteering via WorkAway, which is a volunteering organization for young travelers. I worked in a hostel in Budapest(Hungary) and Busan(Korea), I taught English in Seoul(Korea) for now, I am still on my way to collect cool memories. I am a very passionate CS member, started in 2015. CS is the best way to travel and experience the local culture as far as I've seen so far. That's what I am looking for: local experiences and indigenous lifestyles! Why not meet new people? 🌏
