I am fascinated with the mythological dragon.  Many days I sketch the dragon in black and white or color using pencils, magic markers or paint.  The aura around a dragon is one of strength and power. I like team sports and I like very much Hokey. I play hokey at Mollet HC Club since many years ago. The things I like the most about this sport are: team work and friendship between players.
