About Me

Hello friends. I was born in Turkey and lived here until I graduated from high school. Than I moved to USA for my extended study & work experience. After living in Cape Girardeau, Missouri and graduated from University, I returned home to Istanbul. In 2011 I have moved to Dalyan, a beautiful small town on the Mediterranean coast. Since than I am working in Tourism, helping people who visit here.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I used to travel a lot around the world. Past 4 years has been more of a work. With my current occupancy I work in the summer months and am completely free in the winter. So I can have guests both in summer and winter, show you around, introduce you to all my friends, you can even join the tour we organise and be part of our social and work life. Than in the winter months, I can pay you a visit back and learn about your culture. I don't like travelling like a tourist and I love interacting with the locals so I just want to get my exciting traveling life back :)
