Learning French, Model making/Painting
Learning the French language has been a favourite hobby of mine since High-school. Up till now I've used my knowledge to make friends and indulge into French culture whilst also learning more about the English Language along the way.
Getting into creative arts such as painting and model making has become a recent hobby of mine. I've always liked working with small parts and being satisfied with the process and the outcome.
