Interests

Apart from being a backend developer, I enjoy most of my time being outdoors exploring new places. In the winter, I like to do hiking in the mountains, and when the weather is quite bad, I like to enjoy sci-fi films.

While in the summer, I prefer to travel to new places or enjoy the sun at the beach.

And of course, I like invest time in my personal projects, learning new things and participating in challenges in pages like Coding Game
