    More details about my language interests
    English is my mother-tongue, I'm also fluent in Spanish, and can help teach either. My french is terribly rusty, and would love to practice more of it. I'd also love to learn German, Italian and Japanese.

  • More details about your skills

    My skillset is best described by the old adage: "Jack of All Trades, Master of None... but Better than Master of One".

    Professionally, I'm a Mechatronics Engineer by trade, so I'm familiar with computers, mechanics and electronics, usually in industrial automation, but I've also worked in construction, auto-detailing, gardening, as a shopkeeper and more.

    I'm the usual go-to handy-man for those closest to me, usually helping my family and friends with home-maintenance, repairs, installations and renovations, of everything from plumbing to electrical to even fighting with the bloody printer.

    I'm also comfortable in the countryside and the wilderness, having lived a significant part of my life in a rural community and doing plenty of hiking.

    I'm not a genius, or even an expert at anything, but I'm always willing to give something a try.

  • What else ...

    I'm a film aficionado, and like to practice some photography and cinematography from time to time. I fly drones as a hobby, when they aren't smashed to pieces 😅. I also like, from time to time, a good book, a night of board games, a long bike ride or even quick game of football.
