Interests

Aside from games and games development, I love..

• ..Traveling to new places, experiencing its nature and learn about its culture and history.
• ..People! It’s so much fun to get to know new characters.
• ..Flying, didn’t quite get the hang of if it last time, but will return to it one fine day!
• ..History, I’m mostly intersted in conflicts and technologic consequences.
• ..Everything! Ok, that’s a lie, I don’t love everything, but a lot of cool things interest me.
