Hooman.
Love to do some outdoor activity, like hiking, caving, and go to the beach. Explore all the crowded places, like a market, tourist attraction, Museum, Temples, and others.

Watching the small gigs with intimate interaction with others. Especially for the Jazz and Bossanova music. Anyone agree with me?

I am learning about hidrography, it is about measuring everything under the water surface. You can discuss about it to me.
