About Me

ABOUT ME

Love people and love traveling. I was a teacher for almost a decade, and now I am live inMichigan, working in an educational NGO.

PHILOSOPHY

Well, it is difficult to say you life philosophy in just a couple of words...but generally, I think life is a unique journey, and that each of us deserves to feel dignity and joy in his/her life. I love CS because it makes the world feel much smaller and more connected.
I enjoy tasting life's fruits and try everything possible....Art, dance, sport, food...just love tasting.
I also love meeting new people and cultures.
