Hi! My name is Arailym. I’m a student currently living and studying in Italy.
Originally I’m from Kazakhstan, and I really enjoy cultural exchange, traveling, and meeting people from different backgrounds.

I would describe myself as calm, open-minded, respectful, and curious. I like meaningful conversations, learning about new cultures, and sharing experiences rather than just “passing by” places.
