Zumba Dance, Volleyball, Cooking, spending time with my kids and husband

I used to be a Zumba instructor that i am passionate about. I love teaching people to dance, seeing their smile and being active so rewarding in general. Yes i played volleyball in my spare time with friends and family. When it comes to cooking yes the is the most enjoyable thing for me to do specially creating recipe from scratch, baking my own bread, making my own pasta sauce from scratch. Teaching my daughter and my son cooking is another way for me to spend time with them after a long day from school. I just enjoyed my little time with them every night setting on  our dining table chatting or communicating with them about school, participating on their school project. My kids and my husband the one who's giving my motivation to come to work everyday.
