Musik, Filme und Bücher

I like sci-fi and romantic movie.
I like renowned literature all of the world and I like books about about Archictuture or plant or garden and urban design. Nowadays I am really into healing garden because this is my phd thesis topic. But I like many things. It is hard to tell. When you live abroad and see so many things you never imagined before. Then you become tolerant and open.
