Reading, traveling and photography
For me, reading is a gateway to new worlds. It has the ability to take us on an emotional and mental journey without needing to be physically present. Traveling is a way of exploring, learning and experiencing new cultures. Photography allows me to capture the things that I find most beautiful, it reminds me of the power of perspective and it never hurts to look at a situation through a different lens.
