About Me
Hello! I am interested in most beautiful things about life - nature, people, hiking, swimming, animals, singing, traveling, writing, cooking, juggling and making crafts and many more. I love learning, from people and places that I meet. I am curious, enthusiastic and open, but I also enjoy spending hours reading or listening to music on my own.
