Description

Hi folks!

I’m Serenay , 28-year-old bundle of energy from Turkey who’s always up for an adventure (especially if it involves wind, waves, or animals). I’m a sports geek with a degree in Sports Sciences, and I spend my days teaching windsurfing, fitness, and basketball. Yes, I’m the person who can convince you that windsurfing is worth every wipeout—and that burpees are almost fun.

I’ve lived in Europe for two years, which means I’m pretty good at adapting to new cultures—and I know how to find the best bakery in any town. When I’m not working, I’m usually wandering the world with my trusty backpack, exploring on a shoestring budget, and snapping amazing photos with my trusty iPhone (because who needs a fancy camera when you’ve got good angles?).

I’m fluent in Turkish (no surprise there), my English is almost native level, and I can throw in some German for good measure. I’m also a certified animal lover—I have a cat and a dog back home who make sure I never take life too seriously.

I’m looking for a host who loves good vibes, great conversations, and maybe a windsurfing session (if there’s water and wind nearby). Let’s make awesome memories together!

What else ...

When I’m not out windsurfing or coaching, I love spending time connecting with people and lifting their spirits. I have a knack for creating positive energy in any environment and enjoy organizing activities or events that bring people together. Whether it’s a board game night, a shared meal, or a spontaneous adventure, I’m always up for making things fun and memorable. I’m also a big fan of trying new things, whether that’s learning a local craft, exploring nature, or diving into a new language or culture. For me, it’s all about creating meaningful connections and sharing experiences that leave everyone smiling.

And when it comes to board games—let’s just say, I’m competitive. I absolutely cannot stand losing, and I’ll do whatever it takes to win (without cheating, of course!). People love playing with me because they know I’ll bring the heat… and maybe a little bit of drama when I’m one step away from victory. But hey, it makes the games way more fun, right?
