Interests

Apart from being a software developer, I enjoy most of my time being outdoors. I love stargazing, trekking, swimming etc.

When forced indoors, I binge watch rom-com movies and television shows, read novels or paint. Sometimes try to learn new languages as well, currently learning German. Danke, Tschüss !
