Hobbies

In my free time, I enjoy a pleasant walk around downtown, playing simulation or management video games and travel, especially to places that I haven't been before. What I enjoy to do the most is to build LEGO sets or come up with a creation of my own, or try to learn a new development skill using an online learning tool.
