About Me

From Turkey, working at the logistics sector. Love to learn about your culture and history. I want to help travelers as I live in a very central area in İstanbul. I live in Kadıköy, the most progressive part of İstanbul. Kadıköy is full of cosy cafes, bars, art galleries, boutiques, theaters, stores etc. All of these beautiful things in a walk distance. Transportation is like 2 minutes from my house. I don't use social media so I'm a little bit limited on friends here.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm living in a very central position in İstanbul (Kadıköy). I can offer you my couch and in exchange, I would love to learn about your country.
