What else ...
Last remarks about myself, I really enjoy problem solving and new experiences. This summer I am looking to expose myself to different cultures and views before I begin working as an Engineer back in Canada. In terms of how I spend my free time, when I am not playing sports or studying, I like to watch sports on TV, read, listen to music and maybe even sit down for a beer.
