Hobbies
My garden in 2018.
The same garden in 2019.
In my spare time, I enjoy gardening, cooking, swimming, weightlifting, classical music, and films. I am writing a cookbook of all my favorite dishes, gathered from the various countries I have lived in. Each recipe is fully tested and accompanied by a photo of the cooked dish.
My favorite directors are Ernst Lubitsch, Alfred Hitchcock, Dario Agento, and Brian De Palma. I recommend almost all of their films. My favorite film is Trouble in Paradise (1932), followed by To Be and Not to Be (1942), both directed by Ernst Lubitsch.
