Welcome​

Hi there, my name is Martin. Thanks for visiting my internet home.

I'm a medical student, blogger, basketball player and musician from Slovenia. Apart from that, I adore reading, windsurfing, web-design and tech.

I started writing this blog in 2019 as a means of expressing what I know and think about.
