Interests
I enjoy various recreational activities such as hockey and walking. I enjoy spending time amongst my family and friends and my year old Godson.
I spend a large amount of my time reading books, biographies and am always researching new things on the worldwide web. I am constantly thriving to learn as much as I can about everything, whether music, species, science, nature and/or people.
