My name is Nigar, I’m 22, originally from Azerbaijan, and I’ve been living in Turkey for almost five years now. I studied Psychological Counseling and Guidance, and I currently work as an English teacher (mostly as a side hustle). I also completed a neuropsychology internship in Germany and had the chance to travel across Europe during that time.

I’ve got two cats — my babies — so if you’re a cat lover, we’ll get along instantly.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because I always enjoy meeting travelers who are open-minded, thoughtful, and ready to share a piece of their world. And this is a great place to reach out to them, to share my own cozy corner of the world.

Interests

I’m a mix of social and introspective: I really enjoy meeting new people, learning about different lives and stories, but I also adore my me-time. Give me a quiet corner, a blanket, and a book, and I’m happy. I also like trying new recipes, drawing, doing yoga, and making little DIY things with my hands.

Also I’m a bit of a nerd about things like: philosophy, psychology, politics, feminism, culture, and anything that gets me thinking deeper.
