Listening to music, learning foreign languages and cooking

In my free time, I enjoy listening to a variety of music genres, which helps me relax and stay inspired. I have a passion for learning foreign languages, and since 2019, I have been self-learning Korean. I can now comprehend and converse in basic Korean and read Hangul. I also took a three-month basic Japanese language program. Cooking is another hobby I cherish; I love experimenting with different cuisines and creating delicious meals for family and friends. These hobbies not only provide me with joy and relaxation but also enhance my cultural understanding and creativity.
