Hi, Ako from Iraq. 34 years old.
Ph.D in Chemistry, Academic

I’m not a fan of writing too much—I prefer meeting people and letting them discover who I am through conversation. But I can share a little to give you a sense of who I am, so you can decide whether you’d like to meet me or not.

I come from a country that was once isolated, and I grew up in challenging circumstances. However, these experiences shaped me, giving me valuable insights and resilience. I now live in a diverse city, home to people of different religions and ethnicities. This has broadened my perspective, allowing me to see the world with greater openness and appreciation for differences. I enjoy meeting people from all walks of life.

One of the qualities I admire most in myself is my spirit of challenge—I thrive on pushing my limits and taking on new experiences with determination. I have a deep passion for learning and spend much of my time traveling, volunteering, and exploring different fields of knowledge.

Freedom is something I always seek in every possible way, while staying grounded in reality.

I believe conversations with me are engaging, and I’m open to discussing a wide range of topics. I consider myself a good friend—easygoing, fun, and adaptable.
