ABOUT ME

love reading; don't like routines; love going for a run and spend time outdoors; adore the sun and get easily depressed with rain and bad weather; enjoy having meals or a glass of wine in nice company; i prefer discovering new places by living and working there rather than just traveling

PHILOSOPHY

i try to take life as it comes, stopped making plans since they constantly change anyways

Music, Movies, and Books
