Hello everyone!
I am currently a double major student of sociology and psychology at Koc University, Istanbul.
Also, I will be an exchange student at Sciences Po Paris this semester.
I think sociology as a social science helps you to investigate the society in an academic perspective, and Couchsurfing is non-professional tool to experience what you have been reading! That's why, Paris, the city of love, fashion, art, protests, bourgeois and wine will be a great opportunity to meet with different people regardless of their sex, gender, race, political identity.

I am a proud vegan!

I love volunteering! In particular, I am working with refugees children in Istanbul and hold workshops on social cohesion and peace-building. If you want to talk about sociopolitical climate in Turkey, I would be more than happy to share my own experiences from field work.

I am also interested in contemporary art and worked in a museum for three months!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To explore
