Overview
About Me
I’m optimistic, quite easy going and find that I can get along with most people. I really enjoy connecting with others, but I suppose that's what life is about. I’m also very eager to learn and know more about this beautiful world we live in.
I am a child of the mountains, I love hiking and adventurous travelling. I believe to live a meaningful life, one must be creating art in any form, and art is all about spreading goodness in the world.
