I spend time every spring to plant cooking herbs and corn for the summer rain, i used permaculture practices to prepare my soil, i love being in the kitchen creating and developing new dishes using what i have in the house, when i have time i wake up and run for an hour using random directions that way i get to see new places and learn about my environment. Fiction and factual books gives you an opportunity to learn about new words and experience places that you will like to visit give the chance and time.
