Reading, Traveling, and writing poems
In terms of reading, I am drawn to write ups and literature that are bordered on history, current affairs, foreign language acquisition, and politics. In the process of reading, I develop my critical and analytical skills in terms of crafting an organized and coherent viewpoint. Travelling is an endeavor that broadens my horizon and perspective on culture and diversity. I am passionate about poetry writing because it enables me unpack my creativity through the stroke of the pen on white paper.
