Kenya, 31 years old, living in the United States. I love imagining fantasy worlds and reading fantasy novels, but I try to avoid violent stories because I have had nightmares in the past, which were partially my fault due to wreckless book choices. My other hobbies include reading Braille devotionals, singing my favorite hymns during times of stress, and dancing Thanks for reading.

Hey there! 👋 I'm Yana, and I'm from Ukraine. I've been living in Norway for about a year now, and I'm currently learning Norwegian. My teacher says my Norwegian is at a B1 level, though I’m not so sure – I haven’t taken any official test yet! 😅
I’m a language lover, and besides Norwegian, I was learning Hindi. I used to be really into Indian culture, but over time I’ve forgotten a lot of what I knew. These days, I'm fully immersed in all things Norwegian. I especially love Norwegian music and have built up quite the playlist!
When I’m not exploring languages, I love playing cards – I’m a fan of President, but when I’m in the Playroom, I often play Ducks. I guess I’ve shared quite a bit, so I’ll wrap it up here. Thanks for reading!

Hi new ones and welcome. How is south Africa like? well, it's a difficult question to answer. We have nice weather, and wild animals, at least in reserves or parks which tourists like. High crime rate which is sad. We have 11 official languages, now 12 which is sign language.
That's in short how it is.

Welcome to the new members.

I would love to know what life is like for blind people overseas, especially for blind women. I feel disappointed that I may never be able to travel overseas due to mounting global conflict, not having enough vision to make a passing signature, plus the headache of getting my mental health medicine across the border. I am also a language lover, favoring languages like Mandarin, Arabic and Japanese. In addition to this, I have been reading the memoirs of Maya Angelou and Michelle Obama, trying to understand my place as a black woman who is blind and mentally ill. My goal is to see the world through the eyes of impacted cultures, rather than the flashy reporting of foreign affairs experts biased by the native culture or the demands of the media firm. I am keenly interested in Asian and Middle Eastern languages because they are still standing despite Western influence. I am also enchanted by Hinduism. Whenever I play an audiobook on the subject, my mind is entranced. I would rather read about a culture in the native tongue, but I have yet to find resources. This is especially true for Mandarin, since I have been trying to learn for years without success.

hello everyone, my name is Cami, but I prefer to be called Bluma.
I living in spein, but I born in Colombia.
I love the cats, And I love reading and writing, in fact, I have three books published by Amazon, but they are in Spanish.
I don't know much English, but I want to improve and practice, which is why I want to meet people.

Hi! Okay, I know my nickname is terrible, especially if you're using your screen reader with an English voice, but in my mother tongue, it sounds better. Anyway, I'm Kevin, I'm 18, and I'm studying computer science, but I don't like it. It feels like a wrong path I chose, and now I regret that decision. My native language is Spanish, and I'm kinda learning English, but I always say I'm not making progress. I feel like I'm at the same point I was two years ago. I like reading, writing, and listening to music. I love pop music, especially the ones in English because they help me get used to the language, and their tones sound nicer than Spanish music haha.

@Qhay Would be very interested to hear why you think this way about CS, feel free to connect.

Welcome, my friend

I would love to hear about what life holds for blind people of other countries. I had a dream to see as much of the world. My goal was to get a real view of foreign cultures, avoiding cable news brainwashing. But increasing global conflict, coupled with the fact that I have to take mental health meds for life, those factors have convinced me to let that dream go, even though it pains me. It would scare me to be treated by a doctor with no English skills, since one of the meds I take is for seizures. I would love to learn about how blind people outside America live. I want to broaden my social circle, and I feel slightly safer with blind people, since there is usually more soul essence than in my conversations with sighted, who mainly discuss fashion or tabloids. Both are equally boring, except for the case of Demi Livado, several years ago. Despite having her name on every tongue, she freely spoke about being forced onto stages when she was unwell.

I'm from Mexico, there's a reason I spend all my time in the Hispanic room, but I came here to see what's going on. For what I say graceful, I don't remember that, here at least I live well. As a 13-year-old boy involved in sports and with the dream of learning to program, uff. Yes friend, people live well here. Although the economy is not very good, yes, people are doing well. Maybe when I improve my basic English (I did this with Google Translate) maybe I can tell you more. If not, you could learn Spanish. I return to the Hispanic room. Those who want to tell me something, I'm always there. Simply send a permanent or private message.

Good for you. I love hearing about blind people reaching dreams. I must admit I considered track in middle school, but decided not to go for it.

Wow buddy, I wish you would. Another athlete. Although I don't know what you mean by high school. Here it is from 12 to 15 years old.

I gave it up, not thinking I was too slow. I wish I kept going.

Hello, my name is Aloysius. You should come play Farkle. I promise you I won't lose. My legendary luck is out of this world. I'd be happy to exchange... pointers with you on Mortal Kombat 1, but I'm not gonna share my Steam profile with you you can figure it out on your own. You are bunch of smart individuals, after all. That's it bye.

hahahaha

To the farkle lover, I agree that farkle can be amazingly fun. That is, until I get farkled myself. You might call me paranoid for this, but I never reroll after a full house. I would rather bank my points, even if the point values are lower.

Hello everyone! My name is lonely hamster. I love games too, and better if they are online. I love listening to a lot of music, specifically KPop. I'm quite a fan of a South Korean group called BTS. Yeah, I'm part of that weird fandom called Army (the one from BTS). So, yeah. I love spending time with my friends but I'm not that social. Any thing I have private messages and imbits open if you want to chat even though I doubt I'll answer you hahaha.PS: Sorry for my English, I come from the Spanish room and I don't usually speak that much English. Bye now!

Welcome. I hope you are enjoying yourself here. I love music as well, but I only know English, so lucky you.

hello I am mohit from india. , I am studying computer science. , and I like music of Nusrat fataiali khan
