Hello! My name is Aray. I'm 24 years old. MARRIED. My husband and I are both from Kazakhstan, Karaganda city. My husband's name is Daniyar. He is 31 years old. Currently we are doing MSc degree in the UK (Human Resource Management).Both of us speak Kazakh, Russian and English. I'm learning French and German. We are small, open-minded, friendly and intelligent family (no children). Love traveling, meeting new people, making friends, having guests, learning new things, sharing ideas, reading, art, cooking and so on. Trying to live a healthy lifestyle.

Unfortunately, at the moment we cannot invite anyone to our place because we've been living in a dormitory in a very small room. However, when we go back to Kazakhstan, everyone will be more than welcome! :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

We would like to have friends all over the world!

We think locals know best.

:)

Also, it is always a pleasure to visit places where someone is waiting for you.
