About Me

I'm a 21 years old art enthusiast. I play guitar, I do poetry slam and I write prose as well, I have been writing a fantasy novel for like four years with a friend of mine (hopefully will be published this year). I also organize cultural events in my hometown. I love my friends, spending time with reasonable and interesting people, travelling, music festivals and canoeing. I used to hike quite a lot, but lately, I haven't been able to do it enough. I'd like to change this though.
