About Me

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like being friends with local people while traveling. To have friends from any culture and sharing with them feels beautiful. And sharing a flat; hosting someone or being a guest is a good way to earn friends.

Interests

I play piano. I started playing when i was 6. After age of 18 started to compose orchestral pieces and initiated an orchestra which developed into a big chamber orchestra. I was the president of the Western Music Society in my university or 1 year. I had role in many stages. Played cajon on the streets with my cellist friends. Now i am trying to learn violin and nai.
In the high school i went to courses about theatre. I had role in two theatres. Wrote poems for a special,friend based community which we were sharing our own products.
Now i am trying to put together my interest above, started to write a fantastic book, composing its theme musics. In this i am working with some of my friends for additional stuff like draws, audio recordings and a language created for that story.

I am also interested in sports. I played table tennis for 4 years. I enjoy playing basketball, very amateur in it though. Last four years i was very interested in trekking. I traveld all along the west coast of Turkey with a tent by camping in the small villages. Also went a little bit into Lycian Road. During that camping times i was interested with fishing.
Science and sociology can also be counted as my major interests. While i was studying dentistry i had the psychology courses. And releated topics became my interest eventhough i quit dentistry to study electronic engineering.

Other interests: Wing Tsun, Kicker , Tailoring

Music, Movies, and Books

I don't have a spesific preference in music. From classical music to psychedelic music, as long as the product is of good quality, i really enjoy. Depending on my mood, the music i often listen changes. When i am calm and in my daily life, mostly, i listen thematic classical music (film and video game musics).
When it comes to movies, my favorite can be fantastic movies and for books ı rather prefer academic ones. But in general i am seeking for "something" in art. For example if it is a detective story i am reading, i expect to get excited.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I had a free weekend during my summer school. I called my friends and said "Lets go to north-west of the country. I have three days and i want to drink 50 glasses of tea in unique different 50 places in these three days. We achieved that, it was really fun.
(It is a bit hard to name something as amazing though, when i name it like that it seems to be exaggerated, wierd.. :) )

Teach, Learn, Share

I can give ideas about general music, and i can teach piano up to a level. I can help about numerical experiments, including linear algebra computitions. I can share anything new, i can try to learn anything if it feels like that in the moment.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share anything from their daily life as long as they want. I would like to go to a cafe and have a nice evening with my new friend and share their regular life. Something not interesting or regular for someone can be interesting and new for someone else. :)
