Meine Interessen
I love geography, flags, riddles, public transit, and reading. I want to learn some of the local language everywhere I travel. I also love playing card games and board games with friends. For the past 6 years, I've hosted a game night every week, with about 300 total participants being involved. We always had great discussions afterwards that would last until late at night.
