Interests
Reading
I love reading since I read Dracula by Bram Stoker in high school. I don't stuck with any particular genre or topic. I love Asimov, as well as Charles Bukowski or Game of Thrones.
Travelling
Last year I travelled solo for 7 months through Nepal, Thailand and India. I attended to a lot of different courses. For exemple, one month of Yoga Teacher Training in Rishikesh, India. The journey was a life changer.
Sports
Practising sports is one of my favourite hobbies. I try to work out almost everyday. I like soccer, swimming, climbing, running, almost anything.
