My profile

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.

hello, i think that social media app are for wasting an time on worthless activity without been productive so for me if you want to free your mind try others activity like working out or reading books al least you will learn something after spending time on it .

no, they aren't. In my opinion, these apps are fake and time-consuming.

Are dating apps a good way to meet people?
May be a good way to meet new people but you shouldn't want a deep relationship from these dating apps. It takes time to know someone's personality and mindset even in person. So, how can you believe them without knowing anything about them. Nowadays, it is really difficult to find someone who matches with your personality and who truly loves you in person. In this situation, dating apps may only be good for meeting new people not true person for you.

About me
Hello! I'm An. I moved to Kyrgyzstan about a year ago and I have a unique opportunity to see the mountains from my windows and my balcony. It's very beautiful! Especially in winter. I live with my boyfriend. We both try to get a freelance job so we study almost every day.

Likes and dislikes
I like healthy food and cooking at home. I make incredible breakfast bowls and think that you can't find the same bowls in cafes! I'm really proud of my cooking, hope it makes me and my boyfriend healthier and stronger. Also I like reading in the evenings, watching French movies and walking a lot.

Hobbies
I like hiking and hope to visit all mountain lakes in Kyrgyzstan next season. My hobby is taking pictures on my film camera, so hiking is a good way to get my camera with me.

In my opinion, I think dating apps are an excellent way to meet people because I met my love through a dating app. But I know anyone can luckily like me. So, you should carefully be chatting with people on dating apps.

In my view, dating apps are not good way to find boyfriends or girlfriends because of the following reasons. First, we can meet some cheaters who usually want to obtain our property. For example, there was a handsome guy who was a Tinder user was caught last month because he tricked middle -aged women into transferring money by asking them to help him to solve facing financial problems. Second, the information of user’s dating app is not very real, they easily fake their profile. Instead of using dating apps in order to meet new people, we should take part in social events.
