Reading and Gardening

I do a lot of reading the is a ton of books Im usually interested  that makes me to read even more, books like Things Fall Apart by Chinua Achebe, Othello by William Shakespeare and etc. Gardening is my specialty, it usually reminds me of my great grandmother who has a big field at her backyard and I would help her and advice her on how we can grow the crops better and that inspired me to start growing fruit trees at my backyard like mangoes, avocado's and apricots.
