CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

I love traveling, learning about new cultures, and meeting new people. My religion is human rights. I find joy in simplest things in life. I love the natural beauty of rural and suburban areas as well as the bright lights and busy lifestyle of the city. I am friendly, enthusiastic, helpful, ambitious and determined. I participate in educational/cultural exchange programs, write grants and do projects for improvement of my community. I love music, coffee, city walks, shopping and good laughs.

PHILOSOPHY

Everything is relative.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

The most recent amazing thing I have done is walking and driving on a frozen lake in Minnesota! Coming from a country which hardly ever gets snow, frozen lake is somewhat a miracle to me :)

Lehren, lernen, teilen

I am originally from Turkmenistan, a country which used to be a part of former Soviet Union. It's a unique culture with a very hospitable culture. I have studied in Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan for four years, and that country, despite being in the same region is very different and there is a lot I could tell about both. Also, I lived in Texas and Winona, MN where I was an exchange student. Currently I live in Pornichet, France with my fiance. I love being a citizen of the world. I would be happy to share my experiences once we meet. :)

Was ich mit Gastgebern teilen kann

Cooking traditional meals of my region, souvenirs and small gifts.
