Hello my name is Zehra. I am a teacher and I live in İstanbul's Kadikoy district. I am married with Emrah. He is an engineer. We like meeting new friends and traveling different countries. Our house is in Goztepe/Istanbul, Turkey. (;

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I had been in Italy one month ago with my friends.I liked that vacation. I will be in Belgium 23-26 April 2015. Why shouldn't I? I think, it is one of the best service that internet provides us to connect with people from all around the world.
Also, I enjoy meeting new people, exploring new places and taking in the true heart of a city. Feeling connected to a community through experiences deepens the moments I spend somewhere. I love to know the history and culture... In conclusion, I enjoy learning about... anything and everything. [I know, that's pretty generic] but I'm just trying to take in the world...
