About Me

Gosh, it's so difficult to write about myself.:) I live in Georgia currently, but have lived in USA for a year at my highschool. Then I did my Master's degree in in Norway and lived there for two years. I found my first job when I was 17 and have never stopped working since then. I really am a workaholic.:) But I love traveling and love meeting with new people. I especially enjoy having small group conversations about everything and nothing.:) You know what I mean.:) I am blind since two years old and live a full life as much as possible. I try to be an example for other blind persons to motivate them to enjoy their lives and become included in the mainstream society.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am really engaged in traveling, I always look for opportunities to discover new countries and new people. That's what motivated me to sign up on couch surfing. I am very much looking forward to meet new people, spend wonderful time with them and discover a lot of new things. Hope to meet many of you registered here.:)
