Juijitsu, Chess, Reading Philosophy and Design

Juijitsu is my main physical outlet which lets me face hardships and build myself while also connecting to a community. Chess satisfies me intellectually by giving me slow progress and grow the level of my opponents. Reading entertains me with better understanding the world around me while I can rest in the comfort of my home.
