Fun Facts
When I was very young, my only dream was to be a soccer player. So I played soccer almost every day until high school when the school load became too heavy to accommodate for the sports, but I still managed to play it from time to time as a passion. One funny thing is that before immigrating to the USA, I used to consider American football to be very violent and a non-sport, but today it is one of my favorites. I love concerts, sports and I love action movies. I am absolutely terrified of scary
