i like to do animals puzzles, love cultural foods (mostly seafood), love to travel alone
I am an animal lover, I have 2 cats and a dog and they're very good animals. Doing puzzles in my spare time helps my brain to relax and same time good exercise to keep my brain cells going and developing. Personally, doing puzzles is like solving problems, If I can't find the solution I will not stop until I finished, it is the feeling of satisfaction when puzzles are solved.
About, cultural food, I was born in the Philippines and grew up in a poor family, I was fortunate enough to eat even just salt and rice, but that was the bottom and the lowest part of our family we barely eat. And inspired me to do good in school and finish school to college and find a job to afford all kinds of food.
I love to travel alone (sometimes with the companionship of my dog only around Alberta). I love to get to know different lifestyles of different cultures, I love to make friends and interact with people, doesn't matter what age and gender. I love my own companionship but also I like other companionship like my family and my closest friends even sometimes co-workers if they asked me to join them. I am very flexible and chill.
