I listen to everything too. Learning to play the guitar, want to learn to play the piano

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Lived as an exchange student in a host family in the USA

Teach, Learn, Share

I study materials engineering. If you’re curious about what that is, I’ll tell you all about it. I also read a bit too much about recycling, energy, and supply chains, so I can teach you too. Learning to code.
I did fencing for many years, can teach.
I speak Kazakh, Russian, and English, want to learn Japanese and Spanish. If you want to practice, I’m available for help.
I am learning to draw and paint.
I love learning about the world, cultures, and people.
Anything you can tell me about yourself or your understanding of the world is encouraged!
