When possible, I prefer a vegetarian diet (including eggs and cheese) but I can eat fish and chicken, when no other option. My hobbies include sketching, cooking, slackline, highline, photography, yoga, crochet knitting, going to therapy, reading, writing, motorcycle riding and getting a new hobby every other month.
