About Me

ABOUT ME

I'm a quiet person who likes to meet people from all around the world. People tell me I'm different and I should take one of the those popular personality exams, so I did and I got INFJ, which seems accurate.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

My housemates, a Kurd and a Zaza from Turkey, enjoy entertaining travelers from all around the world, meeting new people, and practicing English.
