*** INTERESTS AND ACHIEVEMENTS***
I enjoy working out in the gym, playing tennis and basketball.

I enjoy travelling to new places, discovering new cultures, meditating, music and being in nature.
I'm passionate about food and enjoy picking vegetables and fruit from farms and using them to prepare delicious dishes pies, stir-fry's and fruit crumbles and this experience has helped children that we're fussy eaters expand their palate by trying new foods.
A lazy day for me would be me listening to an audiobook about ancient mythology or philosophy or watching a food or space documentary.

I have received glowing references from my Manny families.
