About Me

ABOUT ME

Hello Everyone ,

Yes i also love to travel and meet people from all around the world with different backgrounds , cultures , religions , customs , languages :)

I love to talk about cultures , customs , trends , life and etc.

I really enjoy showing my city to foreigners and explain them the story behind the touristic places . I also enjoy showing the local life of my city to others.

I have traveled over 90 countries and had oppurtunity to meet local people from each country luckily . I believe that visiting a city or a country can not be completed unless u meet a local and hear the story of that place from her/him.
