***I am only here for creating friendships and meeting people - NO DATING! As a woman, I feel vulnerable while travelling and I hate feeling uncomfortable by men. I will give you a negative review as well.***

I am openminded in trying out many activities, exploring my surroundings, and learning new things. I studied International Relations for my undergraduate degree. I am interested in politics, social activism, anthropology, sociology, international affairs, languages, cultures and history.
