Working out, Bicycle Riding, Motorcycle riding, Video gaming

I’m really into working out—it's my go-to for staying energized and focused. Gaming is a big part of my downtime.

I like to play video games as well. I like many genres, RPGs, Platformers, and Racing/Simulation, a good variety keeps life interesting. I have a motorcycle that I take out every now and then, when the weather cooperates. I utilize my bicycle as another form of working out and relaxation method.
