INTERESTS
I deeply admire ancient Greek thinkers-philosophers trying to devote time to study them. Also it is
interesting to me the Oriental thinking relating to tao-buddha and their unconventional-holistic approach of
reality. I spend time to be informed about the social problems and international developments mainly by
using the internet .I humbly endeavour to keep my mind open and unconventional and to be useful. Utilize
my time as efficiently as I can so as to allocate many duties during the day.
