Hobbies & Interests
My hobbies reflect a passion for adventure, fitness, and exploration.

I am an avid swimmer and hold a PADI Open Water Diving License. I enjoy bouldering and sport climbing, regularly challenging myself with advanced routes and techniques. Before starting my career at sea, I completed a ski season in Courchevel, where I worked as a ski guide.
