[Blind-international-students] introduction

[hina altaf]

hi noah, nice to have another tech person on the list. I know what you
mean when people not familiar with your country. it happened to me
quite offten, people either think pakistan is in middle east and is a
desert or in india. but most people don't even know where things are
located and its perfectly ok. that's why we are here to meet new
people and represent our country.
