About me

By day I'm a regular guy and by night a superhero … How tiring is that?!

Just joking! I'm a regular guy all the time, good job, close to my family, just bought my own flat with a cat. Actually, my cat thinks I'm a hero because I saved her from the street. I'm a talkative person and I believe communication is the most important thing in a relationship.

Likes and dislikes

I love pizza if it's Italian, wine if it's white, and football if it's the World Cup. I read a lot, especially true life stories, but most of my books live on my phone.

Hobbies

I love to travel and I'm always planning my next trip. I prefer an active holiday like hiking, skiing or watersports and I get bored lying on the beach. I post lots of photos on Instagram as I'm a good photographer but I'd really love to share the holiday with someone. Maybe you'll take the photos on the next trip. wink

Tips

1. Write about your good points, not your bad points.

2. Don’t include every single thing. Choose a few points and focus on them.

3. Don’t add your contact details (e.g. address, phone number). You could get unwanted messages.

4. Check your spelling and punctuation before you post.

5. You can use punctuation and emojis when you’re joking, e.g. ?! and wink.

Hi everyone
My name Hien, I am from Vietnam. I describe myself as a talkative person, so I can talk many things and I love to communicate with others. I adopted a cat, she is 3 years old. She is very cute. I love traveling, singing especially reading romantic fiction. I know those fiction be not true but I still love them. It bring me positive emotions. Now I want to become a manager, so I need to improve my English skill.
Nice to meet all of you
Thanks!

I like reading and watching series, especially science fiction and horrors. I'm not fond of active holiday, I prefer relaxing with a book on my couch🙂
I adore my cats and dogs, they are my best antistress

dating apps, they are new platform that we can use if our goal is to meet people; I have used some of them in Colombia, one of the most important is tinder. this app is really popular there you just have to put your location and you will find some people around who will probably share the same hobbies and insterests as you. To sum up, I think a dating app is a good idea for people who are interested on meeting new friends and more if you have arrived to an uknown place where you haven´t been before.

In my opinion, I think dating apps are not the best to meet new people because sometimes people don't say the truth about themself and this could break the expectation that anybody could have with respect the others. :(

Hello, my name is Masha, I'm from Ukraine. I'm a mother on maternity leave. My son Myroslav is almost 4 years old.

My profile
About me
I'm a regular girl, close to my family. I'm talkative but don’t like to make so many friends around as I don’t have much free time on my hand or maybe I'm an introverted person. ;)
Likes and dislikes
I'm pretty keen on studying especially in the science field. Also, I am obsessed with reading romance novels as much as psychology books, but most of my books live on my phone. Poems from different Persian poets are my favorite too so I have many poetry books in my library.
Hobbies
I can't stand wasting time during the day, therefore I try to fill my free time by reading books or listening to audiobooks. In this way, I think I'm productive 100% of the time.
Surfing the internet for discovering new information on various subjects is a way for relaxing my mind.
