Hello everyone,

I'm Mahdi, also known as Şakurr. I’m a Kurdish guy from Sulaymaniyah who loves exploring the world, learning new things, and making a positive impact. I’m passionate about experiencing different cultures and vibes, and I find joy in teaching and sharing knowledge.

I also love learning languages—it’s one of my favorite ways to connect with people from different backgrounds. Life, to me, is all about growing, discovering, and leaving something meaningful behind.

I look forward to meeting others who share similar interests!

I thrive on adventure and embrace the thrill of exploring the unknown. There’s much more to my story, and you’ll discover it when you get to know me.
