I gave lectures in several secondary schools, academies of higher education and universities about LGBTI+ related topics.

I cherish alone time.

Recharging my batteries in solitude is essential. I enjoy my own company and personal space.

 

Deep conversations excite me.

Small talk isn't my thing, but I thrive in meaningful discussions. I seek connections that go beyond the surface.

 

My inner world is rich.

I have a vivid imagination and a strong sense of introspection. My thoughts and emotions run deep.

 

I'm a great listener.

I am observant, empathetic, and attentive to others' needs. People often confide in me and value my insight.

 

Quality over quantity.

I prefer a tight-knit circle of close friends. I invest in meaningful, long-lasting relationships.

 

I think before I speak.

My words are carefully chosen and deliberate. I value substance and clarity in communication.

 

I excel in focused, independent work.

I'm a self-starter who thrives in quiet environments. My concentration and dedication shine when working alone.

 

I'm in tune with my emotions.

I have a strong understanding of my feelings and needs. This emotional awareness enables me to navigate life with wisdom.

 

I'm selective about social events.

I pick and choose gatherings that resonate with me. Quality experiences are more important than constant socializing.

 

I embrace my introverted nature.

I'm proud of who I am and recognize the strengths of introversion. My unique perspective brings value and depth to the world around me.
