Hobbies

I am passionate gardener of indoor and outdoor plants. Planting and caring for greenery has always been a huge part of my life. I currently have a collection of around thirty house plants including a three gallon planted aquarium where I breed blue dream neocaridina shrimp. I also spend most of my summers in my garden outside.
