My Interest and Hobbies

From a young age I have always been creative, I enjoy Art, Culture, Languages and Music. I have a love for animals and nature that unexplainable and love traveling.

I love birds, one stage I had up to 40 budgies,20 quails and 2 ringnecks but leaving the parents household caused me to get rid of the avairy for a small bird cage. Now I only have 2 budgies, Sonika(left) and bluey (abandoned by backpackers).

I love playing the piano, classical music has so much emotion. Beethoven, Mozart, Choplin,
are all masters. I am currently teaching myself to play classical piano.

I practiced Tae Kwon Do (Korean Martial Arts) for 9 years. It has been apart of my family since my father joined in the early 1990`s, all my family have participated and my father and older brother continue to instruct classes. I made it to black tip, but grew out of it. I believe it is a good way to learn self discipline and self control.(Brother at Regionals, and dad in the crowd)
