I'm a massive bookworm! There's nothing as nice as curling up with a good book and a cup of coffee.

I also love photography, which helps when I need pretty pictures for a side project but is also one of the most calming things in the universe.

My newest hobby is actually belly dancing! It makes me feel great, have much more confidence in myself, and gives me a fun activity that gets me out of my chair.

Yes! Some of them are analog, developed by me. But that was years ago, it's a quite expensive hobby nowadays so only digital now and a few analog rolls.

I used to play with my mother's developing kit, but digital is just so efficient and much more forgiving of my mess ups. :P

This makes me reflect on my own photo taking adventures. I am always in a hurry. I usually snap whatever I see that is good.

It seems to me that I have to take my time to really get some good photographs

I love a good book and coffee. Drinking decaf for a while, but hey, I can still make it taste pretty! ;)
