PERSONAL INFORMATION Address: Amosova street, 40, Kharkiv, Nationality: Driving License: Hobbies: My hobby is, first and foremost, self-improvement. I love books, video games, and drawing. In my opinion, 2D is much better and more important than 3D, but one doesn't interfere with the other. I enjoy any erotica and adult material, as well as heavy and deep psychology. I enjoy fantasy, the world of Dungeons and Dragons, and, of course, all of Japanese culture from beginning to end. Sometimes I write detailed philosophical outlines for books, reviews, critiques, and so on—for people who aren't afraid of literature and long-form reading. Lots of books of all kinds...
