This is one of the most difficult letters I have ever written. To
write to someone who you don't know at all - but at the same time
you need to write something to interest him and manage to depict yourself
attractively. Honestly, it reminds me of a job interview - when you
want to impress the other person, but do not know what exactly he
wants to hear.
To begin with,
I suppose I must tell you about myself, a girl from a far away sunny
Kazakhstan. Like every Eastern woman I have a beautiful and unordinary
name - Safura, which means 'enduring and patient' in Arabic.
These epithets do suit me and I believe that this is not a mere coincidence.
I was born in the very beginning of 1971, on a cold winter day of
January 2, in Ust-Kamenogorsk City. My height is 165 cm, weight 49
kg. I am a Capricorn by horoscope: persistent, goal-oriented, a little
bit stubborn and ambitious.
Many of my friends
and close people characterize me as a calm, well-balanced, tactful,
non-argumentative and easygoing person. These qualities used to help
me a lot when I worked as a teacher at school. I have graduated from
a Teachers' Training College - Faculty of Foreign Languages. Having
worked for several years at school, I decided to move to the capital.
Since then I have been living and working in Almaty.
Living far away
from my parents and relatives I learned to be completely independent
and free. In spite of these traits, which have come in fashion lately,
I was and am a true Oriental woman. I was raised in strict traditions
- traditions, which teach women to respect their husbands, depend
on them, while being excellent homemakers and affectionate mothers.
But this does not mean that you may subdue me or neglect my opinion.
In a man, I value openness, honesty, kindness, understanding, respect
and patience.
To love and be
loved - is my main priority in life, the key to happiness. I dream
to meet such a man, for whom I'd be an equal partner, with whom I'd
be able to share the most precious moments in life, to feel a truly
loved woman. I am romantic, am I not? But would not you agree with
me that without romantic our life would be very boring. And I know
for sure, in turn for such a love I'll give all of myself to you.
There's so much love and affection in me, which I want to give to
my Only man, for whom I've been waiting for so long.
While waiting
for HIM, I grow flowers in my flat. I adore nature and everything
alive: grass, trees, flowers, plants. I often go to the mountains
with friends, or we have picnics out of town. In my free time I read
books, listen to music, like dancing, going to the theater. In the
evenings, I learn French and exercise in a gym.
One more thing
- I like traveling very much. It lets me discover new lands and countries
and know more about different peoples, their traditions and customs.
I like meeting and socializing with new interesting people, which
improves and enriches my inner world.
Well, if I managed
to interest you, I'll be very glad to get to know you better. I have
the Internet at home and speak good English and basic French.
