Hello from Bulgaria

maniana012

Hey everyone, my name is Mariana I'm 31 and at the moment I am living in Sofia which is the capital of Bulgaria in 1 home for people with sensory disabilities. I studied in a school for the blind and when I was not there, I was usually in the countryside in my grandma's house. My grandma was doing all the work in the house and unfortunatelly I didn't learn how to cook or clean. After getting my high school diploma, I spent 10 years in the countryside and now I'm here in this home for blind and deaf adults. I'm learning things like how to use a knife etc. little by little. We also have time for gymnastics and this 1 is scary for me because of my cerebral palsy balance. I like to hold things like walls, doors etc. and when I'm in a place where there's nothing to catch, I really feel terrified! I'm looking for something to do online like a small job and I have some ideas about online studying. I enjoy listening to christian orthodox catholic and protestant music if it's not too noisy, classical music, jazz and other, but carefully selecting the texts. I am learning Italian and I'd like to develop chess my strategy. I really like talking to people and will be glad if we can connect in a voice chat app!
