Besides games, I am passionate about fitness. I do strength training and hip-hop dance several times a week, to keep myself happy and healthy.When I'm not working out, I'm usually home spending time with my husband and cat, or out having good coffee or brunch somewhere.Muay thai photo for CoreX by Ruel Tafalla
