Hi! I’m Ali Kemal, a traveler and culture enthusiast from Istanbul, Turkey. In my daily life, I work as a sales manager at Samsung Turkey, but whenever I get the chance, I love exploring new places and learning about different cultures. I’m also openly gay and proud to be part of a community that supports diversity and acceptance. 🌈🌈

I’ve previously spent time in both Spain and Hungary and even worked at Sony Hungary for a while. This experience taught me just how enriching cultural diversity can be.🌏🌎🌍 As a guest, I value seeing a city through the eyes of locals, and as a host, I enjoy sharing Turkish culture and the beauty of Istanbul with visitors. If you’re ever in Istanbul, feel free to reach out—maybe we can share a cup of Turkish coffee and a walk by the Bosphorus!

On Couchsurfing, my goal is to make friends with fellow travelers, connect with people from diverse backgrounds, and discover the world.👜🎒

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I aimed to improve own language skill. Also my department is political science and international relation so i have to learn knowledge about other cultures. And I am working at private sector. So my communication channel should be better. So i prefered this travelling. The last cause is the searching friend for travellig and drinking and enjoying 🌈
